Description
The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art International Design Competition - Creating a Museum for All - is a global open call for an outstanding architect-led multi-disciplinary team to design a world-class addition for one of the United States' finest art museums.
Now the museum is embarking on a third evolution in response to rising and increasingly diverse attendance and a rapidly growing city. The capital campaign associated with this initiative will be the single biggest investment in the arts in Kansas City in recent years (funded by private not public tax dollars) and contribute to the city's future dynamism and vitality.
The museum aims to become a beacon of inclusivity, creativity and social connections. Strategically, the museum's Board of Trustees is intent on expanding the conventions of the museum, so it becomes a more dynamic, open and inviting place - a place where everyone feels they belong: a Nelson-Atkins for All.
Highlights of the circa 61,000 sq feet new addition(s) will include a primary entrance and welcome foyer, a comprehensive photography center, new featured exhibition galleries, learning and engagement spaces for hands-on art activities, a black box-style theater for digital art and immersive programming, and a restaurant for indoor/outdoor dining and events.
Also contained within the competition scope is the repurposing, reconfiguration and renovation of circa 74,000 sq feet of the existing museum space, and activating and amplifying the outdoor spaces, all framed within a thoughtful sustainability strategy. The estimated construction budget is $160 million - $170 million.
