Peoria museum seeks mural ownership during hotel sale
Peoria Riverfront Museum filed a July claim in U S Bankruptcy Court to keep ownership of a mural in the Marriott Pere Marquette lobby that shows Father Jacques Marquette greeting Native Americans after the Louis Joliet expedition. The museum says the 1920s work by George Matthews Harding has long been displayed at the hotel under loan agreements and should remain a cultural asset in Peoria.
