MINNEAPOLIS (KMSP) - The Walker Art Center will be through Friday due to a storm sewer backup occurred overnight on Tuesday in the lower level of one of the buildings.

The museum and galleries closed Wednesday and will remain closed through Friday while museum and City of Minneapolis staff work to clean up the damage.
