Farewell Week at the Old de Young
The M.H. de Young Memorial Museum will close the doors to its earthquake-damaged building for the last time on December 31, 2000 to make way for a new museum that will open in 2005. A series of special events planned for the week of December 26Š31 will allow the public to bid farewell to the old facility and celebrate the de Young and its role in the community. During the final week the admission fee to the de Young will be waived, and visitors will be allowed to take flash photographs.
