Grand Reopening
Saturday, April 12, 2015
An art museum in small town David City, Nebraska, once heralded as a small gem with a big mission, is now making a big move to a building ten times its former space. The Bone Creek Museum of Agrarian Art is excited to announce it is ready to reveal the renovations that have taken place to the former Ford Building that have transformed this automobile showroom and assembly plant into a state-of-the-art fine art museum.
The museum will host its grand re-opening and ribbon cutting events on Saturday, April 12, 2025 starting at 10:30am at its new location at 312 North 5th Street in David City.
With this move, Bone Creek Museum is greatly expanding the opportunities for audience engagement that have attracted visitors nationwide since 2008. The 1917 building has retained the historic charm of its showroom lobby and reinvigorated the remaining space with five galleries, two classrooms, and a theatre. “There is no underestimating the impact of this building on the activities of the museum. We will now have dedicated spaces for artist talks and receptions, proper spaces for receiving and storing the growing permanent collection, room to host in-house art workshops, and more,” said collections manager Gabrielle Comte.
The grand opening events will include welcome statements and remarks by members of the board of directors, capital campaign representatives and local dignitaries. There will be a live painting demonstration. Art activities will be ongoing in the classroom, as well as tours through the galleries. This event is free and open to the public. All are welcome. Museum hours on opening weekend will be Saturday, 10am -4pm and Sunday 1-4pm.
