A collection such as this that is neither available to the general public no less the local community might as well be cloistered somewhere in the Himalayas. Looking at the local community as a nuisance somehow shows a total misunderstanding of why art is created it should not only be a toy of the affluent.I applaud that the collection is being updated to include more contemporary artists.  If opening this collection can spur the imagination of one child caught in poverty or can bring beauty if not a respite to the daily lives of anyone trapped in the subsistence of the day to day world, amends can be made past indifferences.  I only hope entrance fees do not price out the local community.
