BOISE — Museum-goers got one last chance to visit the Idaho State Historical Museum before it closes for an extended, three-year renovation and expansion project.

The museum hosted a “One Last Look” event Sunday. It gave patrons the opportunity to check out some of the exhibits and artifacts, detailing Idaho’s history, before they’re packed away and stored.

Museum-goers also got to see floor plans and renderings of what the museum will look like after completion.

When it re-opens, the museum will be almost 14,000 square feet larger that its current space, which originally opened in 1950 and has undergone several expansion and renovations since then.
