The Chapel Hill Museum Announces Closure After Battle with City Council

Following last month’s news that the Fayetteville Museum of Art was closing its doors forever, July brings more proof that the recession still isn’t over in the museum business. The Chapel Hill Museum in North Carolina has announced that its final day of operation will be this Sunday, July 11th. Like in Fayetteville, the 17 year-old museum was hit hard financially over the past couple of years. However, that’s not the whole story with Chapel Hill.
