North Dakotans will be able to get a look at two new galleries at North Dakota Heritage Center starting April 28.

The expansion project is winding down and remains on target for completion by Nov. 2.

A certificate of occupancy was granted last week for the expanded Heritage Center setting the stage for the April 28 soft opening anticipated by State Historical Society of North Dakota officials.

State Historical Society Director Merlan Paaverud said the department received the certificate of occupancy on Wednesday from North Dakota Facility Management.

“We’ve started moving in staff-wise, getting it cleaned up and presentable,” Paaverud said.

The first two galleries of the three galleries constructed as part of the expansion can be opened to the public on April 28. Paaverud said Gov. Jack Dalrymple is expected to take part in the opening and inaugural tour.
