It will be a museum of narrative art.
Click here for reuse options!…Lucas has chosen Los Angeles as the future home of his Museum of Narrative Art, a decision that Mayor Eric Garcetti touted as a turning point for the city and the area around Exposition Park, where the new $1 billion project will make its home.
The museum for Lucas’ extensive collection of art and film memorabilia will make its home in the park adjacent to USC. The “Star Wars” filmmaker chose the site over a competing location on Treasure Island, in the middle of San Francisco Bay.
Garcetti’s office trumpeted the arrival of “a new jewel,” saying that the museum will “soon bring unrivaled opportunities to be immersed in stories told on canvas and celluloid.”

I cannot even begin to imagine the kind of money this museum will bring in. As a historian, I love anything that brings people to museums.
