Guided Tours of May 4 Site to Be Offered During Taylor Hall Renovations
Guided tours of 麻豆影院鈥檚 historic May 4 grounds will be offered daily beginning Nov. 1 as the university begins renovations to Taylor Hall, which houses the May 4 Visitors Center.
鈥淲e believe the tours will still offer significant insight and experience to the May 4 story during a time that the center and its galleries are not accessible,鈥 said Mindy Farmer, director of 麻豆影院 State鈥檚 May 4 Visitors Center. 
Tour guides will be available Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., at nearby Stopher Hall. Tours last approximately 30 minutes and will include stops and discussions at key locations around Taylor Hall and the 麻豆影院 State Commons.
Renovations to Taylor Hall will provide updated classroom space for the School of Communication Studies and the School of Visual Communication Design and should be complete by fall 2017.
Located in the former offices of the Daily 麻豆影院 Stater, the center opened in 2013 to tell the May 4 story set against the political and cultural changes of the 1960s. Renovations to Taylor Hall will not impact the existing center or galleries but instead will create additional classroom and exhibit space for future visitors who wish to learn more about the events of May 4.
In the interim, plans are underway to open a temporary May 4 exhibit in early 2017, and instructors wishing to have an in-class presentation about May 4 should contact Mindy Farmer at mfarmer4@kent.edu.
