(museum refreshing two names: Mia (pronounced mee-ah) replaces acronym MIA, and Minneapolis Institute of Art replaces [Minneapolis Institute of] Arts; MIA problematic due to long association with "missing in action"; "Mia" means "mine" in Spanish and other languages and with new logo establishes identity apart from the initials; Mia now the common name of the museum; dropping "s" in "Arts" resolves a bit of history) - http://new.artsmia.org/stories/once-at-mia-whats-in-a-name-2/
