“We saved the Waldron”. That was Bloomington mayor Mark Kruzan’s triumphant declaration as the Bloomington Area Arts Council announced it has signed an agreement for the city to take over the John Waldron Arts Center from the financially troubled council. The BAAC is getting a good deal, walking away from the Waldron without any debt. The city is getting a good deal too, as the holders of a clear title to a historic building worth anywhere from one to two million dollars, and careful control over its destiny.  Hear the details straight from the source in this unedited full audio from the announcement.
