Description
The Wheadon Museum is an Impressionist Sculpture Museum located in the central part of Lamport Hills. Tagging it earns no XP. According to the in-game description, its installation by an impressionist artist is now thick with dust, and a room has been cleared for the display of two cracked sculptures.
History
Opened in 1992, this museum contains several displays containing local ores & minerals. The museum also includes an impressive 30-foot tall sculpture of Eduardo Manet crafted from native tin.
Following the Malton Incident, the Wheadon museum fell into a state of disrepair. Though it was ignored by looters, and the curators managed to pack away most of its artworks before the undead reached the building (missing only a single room, as well as the Eduardo Manet statue that was too large to move), the apocalypse took its toll. Most of the Malton art-viewing public became shambling undead, and most of the curators did, too. With no one to care for it, the museum lay dusty, occasionally ransacked by survivors looking to add an art piece to their safehouse, ransacked by zombies looking to ruin every building in Malton, or vandalised by either side in a fit of boredom.
Will someone restore the building to its former glory? Or will it remain a dusty relic forevermore?
