The Noguchi Museum

"The Noguchi Museum, founded and designed by Isamu Noguchi to house his art and archives, deserves an unhurried visit.

Much of it can be seen in this warehouse space, which he bought and converted in 1985. The museum has a..."

"We put in a lot of drawer dividers when we organize a home, and many times they slide around in large drawers. To keep them in place, we put a little dab of Museum Putty underneath. We also like using this for its intended use, which is keeping knickknacks from falling off a shelf."
