INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The Indiana State Museum will close its galleries and public spaces on most Mondays beginning in January.

Museum interim director Kathleen McLary says the change will bring the museum into alignment with most other museums and cultural institutions, and provide a more efficient time for cleaning and gallery adjustments.

The exceptions to the change are Martin Luther King Day on Jan. 18, the NCAA Final Four men's basketball championship game day on April 5 next year, Labor Day on Sept. 6, and all Mondays from Thanksgiving through the end of the year.

Administrative staff will continue to work on Mondays.
