The Science Museum of Minnesota in downtown St. Paul has extended the run of the traveling exhibit "Star Wars" by three days. It will now close on Aug. 27.
The exhibit was scheduled to close Aug. 24. But museum officials said they're adding the extra dates to accommodate high ticket demand and still be ready to host events associated with the Republican National Convention September 1-4 at nearby Xcel Energy Center.
The exhibit features 80 costumes, models and props from all six "Star Wars" films.
As of Wednesday, more than 175,000 visitors had toured the show.
St. Paul is the final stop on the exhibit's North American tour.
