The Bishop Museum will open a half-hour late tomorrow because of a scheduled power outage.

The museum will open at 9:30 a.m.

The outage is needed to complete electrical work at Hawaiian Hall, which is undergoing renovations.

The $21 million renovation project started in June 2006 and is expected to be finished in spring 2009.

This is the first renovation of the building in more than a century. Updates on the renovation are available at www.bishopmuseum.org/special/renovation.html.
