Eero Saarinen's Miller House Opening to the Public |
|
|
|
Friday, 05 November 2010 06:20 |
 Last October, the Indianapolis Museum of Art had announced that the IMA will open Miller House and Garden to the public in May 2011. We are reissuing the announcement, since the tickets are now available for visitors to purchase tickets online at www.imamuseum.org and at www.columbus.in.us. To order by phone, visitors may call (800) 468-6564. Located in Columbus, Ind., and one of the country’s most highly regarded examples of mid-century Modernist residences, the Miller House was designed by Eero Saarinen, with interiors by Alexander Girard, and landscape design by Daniel Urban Kiley. Members of the Miller family donated the house and gardens, along with many of its original furnishings, to the Museum in 2009. Additionally, members of the Miller family and the Irwin-Sweeney-Miller Foundation have donated $5 million to establish an endowment for the house and surrounding grounds. The IMA is working with the Columbus Area Visitors Center to offer public guided tours of the house and gardens beginning in May 2011. |

Construction Users Roundtable National Conference |
|
|
|
Wednesday, 20 October 2010 14:22 |
Conference to address its next decade of industry leadership & action, solutions for today’s economic & strategic thinking for the industry.
“10 Years of the Owners Voice | Unveiling the Next Decade of Industry Leadership and Action” is the theme and focus of the 10th Annual National Conference of Construction Owners, being held at the Buena Vista Palace Hotel in Orlando, Florida from November 8-10, 2010. For registration information visit www.curt.org and follow the National Conference link. Given the importance of the industry at this point in our economy, and the value and timeliness of the information to be transmitted at this event, the press and media are invited to attend this Conference and Annual Awards Ceremony.
CURT members spend an estimated $200 billion annually on construction services. The Construction Users Roundtable (CURT) is an association of leading owners and other organizations in the U.S. dedicated to the promotion of cost-effective construction methods.
“Even in a tough economy, the construction industry leads the way in employment and as an economic growth opportunity,” stated Mike Conley, CURT President and Engineering & Design Competency Leader for DuPont and who will be a key speaker during the opening session of the Conference. “The industry is at a critical point---we must not only be vigilant about ensuring shareholder value, but we must simultaneously plan forward to be ready for an economic rebound. The CURT National Conference has been designed to help owners accomplish exactly that, and has been purposefully designed as a ‘must attend event’ for all construction industry leaders, accordingly.”
