Construction continues on a scale model of Noah's Ark at the Ark Encounter attraction in Williamstown, Kentucky. The Ark Encounter is currently working toward raising $24.5 million to fund the project and expects to attract more than 1 million guests per year. Regular admission tickets are planned to cost $40 each.
Upon opening, the ark will have extended hours for 40 days and 40 nights with daytime admission running from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and nighttime admission from 5 p.m. to midnight. Normal hours of 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. begin after Aug. 15, according to the park's website. The Kentucky ark joins a ship in the Netherlands and a concrete structure in Hong Kong as the only Noah's Ark replicas in the world. The Kentucky exhibit sparked concerns about separation of church and state after Gov. Matt Bevin approved of $18 million in tax breaks for the project, Fox 17 Nashville reported.
