Though Eli Broad is not scheduled to decide where his museum will be located for several months (see story below), the smart money is on downtown Los Angeles.

Whether or not the rumors are true, it’s time for the community to explore an idea Bruria Finkel (see letter below) has been developing for some years.

She wants to make an archival

museum devoted to the archives of artists in all media who have lived and worked in  Santa Monica.

If done properly, and if Bruria is in charge, it will be done properly, it could be a brilliant and altogether

fitting addition to this iconic beach town.

Architect Frank Gehry has already promised his archives to Bruria.
