It seems George Lucas is starting to get a good choice for locations for his latest dream, the Lucas Museum of Cultural Arts.
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti has launched a campaign to woo the Lucas Museum of Cultural Arts, a legacy project of “Star Wars” creator George Lucas, stepping into what had been a two-way battle between Chicago and San Francisco for the director’s private art collection.
