The Minneapolis Institute of Arts houses a diverse collection of objects spanning over 5,000 years of history.  Established in 1883, the building has been renovated to state of the art technology that is used to help visitors interpret the works of art.  The recent addition of the Target wing in 2006 added 40% more space to the facility and included a new library, community room, and reception hall.
