Question Santiago - Tomas Morel Museum (where is it?)

I am headed down to Santiago and even talked to a friend there but he never heard of the museum.

Does anyone know where in Santiago is the Tomas Morel Museum of Folkloric Art?

Thanks in advance.

The Restauración St is one way East to West. The museum is on the left side after you pass 30 de Marzo light, and then, the big intersection and light at General López-the street that goes to the bridge.

Good sport to see really "local" stuff.

I don't think that the Tobacco Museum is open any longer.
Go to Centro León on Ave 27 de Febrero
You can see tobacco rolling there, too.
You should go to the PUCMM and walk around. The library is full of good art, and the campus has some nice "eye-candy"

You mentioned eye candy at the university, is there a summer schedule? I am leaving next week.
