Created inside a former paper warehouse, the 29,000-square-foot cultural center is both a museum designed to draw Bob Dylan fans and an archive for scholars studying the 80-year-old singer and writer, who won the 2016 Nobel Prize for literature for creating “new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.”
