The announcement comes as an exciting new development for museum-goers following the institution\u2019s seven-year overhaul period. Originally slated to reopen in 2022, the museum closed its doors in 2018, tearing down its former building to make room for the multimillion-dollar expansion project, helmed by David Adjaye<\/a> of Adjaye Associates.\n<\/p>\n Housed within its seven floors, the structure will see an over 70% spatial increase across indoor and outdoor offerings, alongside 14,000 square feet dedicated to state-of-the-art exhibition space, a rooftop terrance, flexible program spaces and a studio and lounge for pioneering Artist-in-Residence program. The museum\u2019s Studio Store will also debut a range of publications and new products by Black-owned businesses.\n<\/p>\n In terms of showcases to look forward to, the Studio Museum will present four exhibitions, two site-specific commissions and mount works from its esteemed collections. Heading the charge will be a survey exhibition dedicated to artist and activist Tom Lloyd, whose work was the subject of the institution\u2019s inaugural exhibition in 1968.\n<\/p>\n 1 of 4<\/p>\n Courtesy Artist And Studio Museum In Harlem\n<\/p>\n 2 of 4<\/p>\n Courtesy Artist And Studio Museum In Harlem\n<\/p>\n 3 of 4<\/p>\n Courtesy Artist And Studio Museum In Harlem\n<\/p>\n 4 of 4<\/p>\n Courtesy Artist And Studio Museum In Harlem\n<\/p>\n \u201cAs our historic homecoming approaches, I am reflecting on the transformative vision of the artists, supporters and community members who have helped us shape this pivotal moment in our legacy,\u201d said Chief Curator Thelma Golden in a recent statement. \u201cOur breathtaking new building is an invaluable space and a tribute to the museum\u2019s mission and the vitality of artists of African descent. I am thrilled to welcome everyone back to a reimagined Studio Museum, rooted in Harlem and resonating far beyond.\u201d\n<\/p>\n The Studio Museum in Harlem will celebrate its new home with a building-wide Community Day on November 15, offering free admission and arts programming for visitors.
