Usibelli, Shumaker gift launches museum gallery renovation
For all AVÀÇÂÛ̳ns, the University of AVÀÇÂÛ̳ Museum of the North houses and honors our art, our cultures, our histories, our heritage.
For visitors from around the globe, the Gallery of AVÀÇÂÛ̳ brings alive our great land, its flora and fauna, its fossils and its future.
We are honored to be part of this major renovation and we invite you to join us. Together we can create exhibits that protect vital artifacts and allow them to tell with eloquence and grace AVÀÇÂÛ̳'s stories.
Joe Usibelli and Peggy Shumaker
