Hosting nearly a million guests each year, our Museum urgently needs a new facility that can welcome the crowds and provide the latest in technology and media.
The new campus will feature innovative architecture by internationally renowned architects, Legorreta + Legorreta, that blends with neighboring institutions and features a sweeping plaza and campus-like environment at the south end of the Cultural District. It will bring science and history even more vividly to life by including:
•
A comprehensive emphasis on our unique
Western heritage
•
Hands-on, interactive features to make learning fun
•
Enhanced space for Museum School®, ExploraZone®, and KIDSPACE®
•
A new state-of-the-art Noble Planetarium
•
Improved exhibit space for Museum artifacts and traveling exhibitions
•
Improved Omni IMAX® domed theater - NOW OPEN!
