The Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians is fulfilling a man's wish to build a fine arts museum.
Roy Clyde Gardner left his entire estate to the tribe. Includes was his 9,000-item collection of fine art and antiques.
While most of the collection has been deemed not �museum worthy" the more valuable items are going to be placed in the museum the tribe will construct. The museum will be located at the Pearl River Resort.
