The Marianna Kistler Beach Museum of Art at Kansas State University is celebrating its silver anniversary in page-turning style with the new e-book “Marianna Kistler Beach Museum of Art at 25: People and Spaces”
Created by the board of the Friends of the Beach Museum of Art and published by K-State Libraries’ New Prairie Press, the e-book uses texts and photographs to detail the history of the museum and the people who made it possible. Editors of the e-book are Anthony R. Crawford, Marla Day, Martha Scott and Marlene VerBrugge, all board members of the Friends of the Beach Museum of Art.
