DiAnna Hemsath uses tweezers to open the drawer on one of the miniatures in the Kruger collection. This handcrafted piece includes wood inlay and custom cast bronze drawer pulls.
An open house at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln will showcase one of the largest miniature collections in the country.
From 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Oct. 24, the university's Kruger Collection of Miniature Furniture and Decorative Arts will be open for a behind-the-scenes tour. The exhibition "Dream Space | Play Space: Celebrating the Imagination of Childhood and the Magic of a Miniature," which includes 12 scenes that examine childhood fantasies, fears and pleasures, will also be featured. The museum is located in Architecture Hall.
The event is free and open to the public. For more information on the collection, click here or contact DiAnna Hemsath at dhemsath2@unl.edu or 402-472-3560.
