This architectural gem is hidden across the street from peace park in downtown columbia. The exterior and interior designs are remarkable and add another great building to Columbia. The art in the gallery is important and astonishing. The library is huge and gorgeously appointed. The interior is impressive at every turn. This is a new do not miss when visiting columbia.
