EXPANSION
More gallery and programming space, and a research center.

TIMELINE
The timeline for the project has two parts. The first involves renovating the existing Krieble Gallery, which opened in 2002. Skylights will be replaced, lighting improved, and fire sprinklers introduced.

The second component of the project provides much-needed additional gallery and programming space and adds a long-awaited Collections Research Center.

Our project begins this November.
