Cloudy future for Anthropology Museum

PANAMA’S ANTHROPOLOGY Museum which has exhibited its 16,000 artifacts  for seven years    will not be  open until at least 2018.

Renovations to the museum on Plaza 5 de Mayo in Santa Ana. which was once the city’s passenger rail terminal ,will take at least two years.

National Institute of Culture (INAC) Museum Coordinator Orlando Hernandez said  that the museum closed its doors in 2013

Former Director Carlos Fitzgerald recalled that the last time its 16,000 artifacts were displayed was in 2009 in Ancón.

He said the “reformulation of the permanent exhibition” might never be achieved.
