Fw: The official word: Update regarding the Randall School

As some of you may know I was a former tenant of the studios at the Randall School - Millennium Art Center -



I just got this forwarded email and I am shocked and in 7th HEAVEN - According to the Corcoran:

"We have signed a Purchase and Sales Agreement with Washington D.C.-based Telesis Corporation and the Rubell family of Miami. They have entered into a joint venture to develop the site that will include a contemporary art museum, hotel, and residences. While our plans to construct a Corcoran College of Art + Design campus in Southwest will cease, we will collaborate with the Rubell Foundation and other community partners on educational programming."


I want to send the Rubell's a bus-sized valentine! Kiss the ground they walk on, etc. etc. Holy hell, after 10 years of carping about the lack of a real contemporary art museum in this city, for the first time I believe it can happen.

Tell all your friends!
