Description

The Craske Museum was taken over by unaffiliated survivors after the Outbreak. Due to its strategic nature situated in the middle of what is known as the Craske Triangle: the Usher Building (a NecroTech laboratory), Cornelius General Hospital in Spracklingbank, and Goldney Place Police Department. The solidly constructed old stone building gives the Museum a fortress-like appearance, and has made it an important position to hold in Heytown... Historically part of the Craske Triangle and headquarters for the Mad Craskers.

Barricade Policy

The Craske Museum is to be kept Extremely Heavily barricaded (EHB) at all times, as per the Heytown Barricade Plan, to protect the resource-rich neighborhood, and to keep the strategic... safe for control of the Craske Triangle.

Current Status

The Craske Museum is often the center of activity in southern Heytown. However, it is less frequented than the Bowles Museum, due to Bowles' close proximity to Dowdney Mall, in Santlerville.

History

In late 2006, a small group of survivors took control of the museum, during a zed siege of the Triangle. As they were angry ...at the situation, and the base of their operations was the Museum, they called themselves the Mad Craskers. They control the museum to this day, and their graffiti can be seen on old museum banners.

The Craske Museum, an African Art Museum and once an attraction for outsiders, never got much attention from the residents of Heytown themselves. Built in the 1950's, its unremarkable architecture blends in between the buildings in which it is nestled. The Museum, named after Jonathan Andrew Craske, a collector of African artifacts and one-time adventurer in the Congo and the jungles of Nigeria, contained mostly African artwork, historical artifacts, and visual timelines of Africa's history. which was vandalized beyond repair three days after it opened, costing the museum thousands of dollars. ... Its African Art Exhibit was smashed by looters.
