The 65,000-square-foot expansion of the Art Museums of Colonial Williamsburg is well underway and today’s a big day for the project. Today, the team installed the final steel piece of the construction, the cupola. Eventually, a weather vane created by our historic trades will sit atop the cupola, welcoming Art Museums guests to the new entrance on Nassau Street. How exciting! P.S. The Art Museums are open under construction. Explore the collection and check out current programming here: bit.ly/2
