An exclusive look at Notre Dame’s new art museum

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (WNDU) - Notre Dame’s campus art museum of the last 43 years has closed its doors to the public. While the Snite Museum of Art is gone, a new campus museum is set to open Friday night at 6:00 p.m. The $66 million Raclin Murphy Museum of Art is named after donors Ernestine Raclin, along with Christopher and Carmen Murphy. The new museum has an atrium that spans three stories and a portrait of the St. Joseph River Basin that was done by Maya Lin—the artist who created the Vietnam War Memorial.
