The Nebraska Art Collection was begun
in 1976 and the Museum of Nebraska Art was founded in 1986 in the old Kearney
Post Office, originally built in 1911 and listed on the National Register
of Historic Places. The facility was expanded and completely remodeled in
1991-93 and reopened as the NEW Museum of Nebraska Art in October of 1993.
The Museum of Nebraska Art is located just off Interstate I-80 on the historic Lincoln Highway, U.S. Route 30, and the Oregon Trail at the corner of 24th Street and Central Avenue in Kearney, Nebraska near the entrance to the downtown Kearney Centre. The Museum of Nebraska Art is located at 2401 Central Ave., Kearney, NE 68848. Hours are posted in the museum's website.
Nebraska Public Television provides on-demand
radio in a web
page that archives MONA Moments on Nebraska Public Radio, written
and narrated by Ron Roth, Director of the Museum of Nebraska Art. The NPTV
web site says that the Moments "...are designed to "educate
and inform NPR listeners on Nebraska's visual art heritage, and to promote
MONA." As of September 2004 there were about 80 archived Moments
on the NPTV web site. Each Moment, with 2 to 7 minutes of audio,
has a separate web page containing a link to enable the viewer to replay
the audio broadcast, a complete transcript of the audio, plus a thumbnail
image of the art subject being covered to provide context. The thumbnail
image is linked to a larger image with a caption on a separate page.

Why was this sub-index page prepared?
When Resource Library publishes over time more than one article concerning an institution, there is created as an additional resource for readers a sub-index page containing links to each Resource Library article or essay concerning that institution, plus available information on its location and other descriptive information.
TFAO's catalogues provide many more useful resources:
