Dali masterpiece opens in St Pete

The St. Pete/Clearwater area has opened its newest cultural icon. The ‘new’ Dali Museum is a 66,450-sq ft facility that was 14 years in the making. Located in downtown St. Pete, the Dali attraction is more than twice the size of the former museum of the same name and contains 50 per cent more gallery space, which will be used to display both temporary exhibitions and its permanent collection of 96 oil paintings (including eight masterworks), 125 drawings and watercolours, 2,500 prints and photographs, 250 objets d’art, and a 5,000 book library. Admission is $21 for adults, and $7 for children six-12. www.visitstpeteclearwater.com/new-dali.
