— Another Mississippi city is making a big bet on cultural tourism as Meridian opens the $50 million Mississippi Arts and Entertainment Experience . “This is a ‘do touch’ museum,” CEO Mark Tullos told The Meridian Star during a recent preview tour, as he described a large stained glass painting in the museum’s church display. They include the Grammy Museum Mississippi in Cleveland the B.B. King Museum in Indianola and the Delta Blues Museum in Clarksdale. ——Information from: The Meridian Star, http://www.meridianstar.com
