The National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA) in Washington, DC announced today that it would close for around two years beginning in August for a $66m renovation of its 1908 Classical Revival building.
The project, for which $50m has been raised so far through a capital campaign, will include creating a new orientation gallery in the building’s great hall to acclimate visitors and tell stories about women artists; enlarging galleries for both historic and contemporary works; creating a library, research centre, reading room and a studio; improving wireless and touch-screen technology in galleries; and upgrading infrastructure and storage to enhance the conservation and security of the museum’s collection. The roof, cornice and exterior of the building, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, will also be restored while heeding local preservation
