Behringer-Crawford grand re-opening Saturday

After eight months and $5 million of renovations, the Behringer-Crawford Museum will hold its official ribbon-cutting on Saturday.

The renovations added 15,000 square feet of exhibit space, new galleries, a new entrance, new building mechanicals and Wi-Fi access.

A new permanent exhibit featuring the history of Northern Kentucky - filtered through the lens of its transportation development - will be the museum centerpiece, with multiple rotating exhibits rounding out the collection.

The grand re-opening starts at 11 AM and will feature live music, food and historical presentations.

Kentucky dignitaries, including Covington Mayor Butch Callery, are expected to attend.

Admission on Saturday will be free.

The museum closed April 1 and missed two prior re-openings due to construction setbacks.
