Petition to Turn the Divine Lorraine Into Contemporary Art Museum Is Now Live
“Artist Caryn Kunkle has a plan for the Divine Lorraine: turn it into an interactive museum of contemporary art using eminent domain to take the property over. Though this plan has been circulating since April of 2012, it looks like there’s movement ahead.
The petition speaks in grand terms: creating a museum of contemporary art in the Divine Lorraine will
“…create jobs, boost inter-disciplinary education, ignite international tourism, rescue the Divine Lorraine, and unite a fractured community! Most importantly it will impact the way children of the future have access to the arts, which are so threatened in our public schools today.””
