Come to visit Malton's first place in Cubist Art, get some quadrate pie in the only cubist style café or just do both of it!
Level One Description
Naturally, the Phelips Museum is filled with many strange and varied types of cubist sculptures. Though it is sometimes difficult to discern what many of these sculptures are meant to represent, there are many pieces which take on recognizable forms. The Phelips Museum is primarily dedicated to mediums of carved or molded imagery, but it does contain other examples of artistic cubism. The Phelips also hosts several cubist paintings.
In addition, there is an entire wing devoted to furnishings inspired by cubism - though some pieces afford more comfort and practicality than others.
Level Two Description
In addition to the art exhibits on level one, the museum hosts a contemporary cafe on the second level. The Cafe Cubiste was added shortly before quarentine, therefore it was never given the opportunity to entice more patrons to the museum. Cafe Cubiste was furnished with an unrivaled bakery, first class coffee, and a fully equipped bar.
Sub-Level Description
In the past, Phelips entertained many high profile patrons from the art community in order to acquire and sustain support for the museum. In order to properly host them, the museum maintained a diverse and well-stocked cellar of the best vintages available. This cellar has remained largely intact to this day.
History
Before the quarentine, the Phelips Museum was a relitively quite place in Whittenside with very few patrons and guests. As a result, it was never a recipient of destructive zed activity. In fact, if not for the building's close proximity to the Agapitus General Hospital, it may not have suffered any damage at all.
Barricading policy
The Phelips Museum is to remain at VSB in accordance with the Whittenside Barricade Plan.

Even if there are some rooms in disorder due to the zeds trampling down our institution we have opened again for the art-interested survivors of Malton.--St0rm 01:36, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
