New Telfair Museums leader: Museums can be a safe haven for dark times
Savannah Morning News
According to Ben Simons, Savannah has a safe haven, a refuge if you will, from the chaotic world we ve all found ourselves living in.
Simons, the new executive director and CEO of the Telfair Museums, said that haven can be found at any or all of the museums sites.
Whether it s a visiting piece by Picasso (coming this year), an Italian sculpture, a self-portrait by poet and novelist Kahil Gibran or a Regency-style 1819 mansion, all three sites of the Telfair provide a calm and unhurried bit of wonder.

Simons said that attendance at the museums has been steadily climbing, reaching about half of pre-pandemic attendance levels since the museums reopened in late June.
