By now, you've read about the flash floods that hit Casper last Friday, July 3. Torrential rains flooded a number of buildings on the Casper College campus, including the Gertrude Krampert Theatre which was preparing for "Peter Pan" (for info, go to http://www.caspercollege.edu/theatre/indexx.html). Downtown, water inundated the Nicolaysen Art Museum. But the show(s) must go on. This announcement comes from The Nic:..
We're cleaning up after storm.
The Nicolaysen Art Museum & Discovery Center will be CLOSED TO THE PUBLIC through at least Wednesday as the staff and contractors clean up water damage from the flash flooding that occurred as a result of the intense rain/thunderstorm last weekend.
Fortunately, museum disaster preparations and planning prevented any of the art works in the exhibitions or collection from being damaged.
Parents of students enrolled in summer art camp classes next week will be contacted about whether the classes will be rescheduled or, if not, refunds given.
Despite the cleanup, "Wednesday Night Live" will still be held this week from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on July 8. Featured group is Dan & Cliff!
The building will be close, but please bring your chairs or a blanket and join us for the music on the lawn behind the museum. It's free!
