Southwest Museum is closed … now what?

Scott Piotrowski reports that the Southwest Museum of the American Indian, the oldest museum in Los Angeles, has closed and its future is uncertain.

There will be a “funeral service” for the museum at 10 a.m. Saturday at the Gold Line Southwest Museum rail station, along with a candlelight vigil that evening at Sycamore Grove Park.

Piotrowski has a rundown about the Southwest Museum’s plight here. More info also is here.
