Baltimore Museum of Art to be renovated
The Baltimore Museum of Art
has announced a renovation project costing $24 million thanks to a $10 million multi-year commitment from the State of Maryland.

The renovation project will be focused upon improving amenities to visitors, upgrading essential infrastructure, and renovating galleries for three major art collections—Contemporary, American, and African.

From Artdaily.org:

“This is an exciting time at BMA and our sincere hope is that BMA Members and other loyal friends will join us in this extraordinary campaign to ensure that, on our 100th anniversary, this great Museum continues to welcome and inspire,” said Campaign Co-Chair Sandra Levi Gerstung.

“We will use new curatorial research and fresh educational perspectives, thoughtful design, and innovative technology to re-enliven the BMA’s distinguished collections of Contemporary, American, and African art ,” said BMA Director Doreen Bolger. “I can think of no better way to celebrate the beginning of the Museum’s second 100 years.”

This means that admirers of art will now have endless reasons to visit the Baltimore Museum of Art.
