View project
Aug 30, 2023

An overview of the new Palmer Museum of Art at Penn State University, located at the gateway to the University Arboretum in State College, Pennsylvania. The objective is to not simply place a building in a park, but rather to weave together the Museum and the Arboretum, connecting people to landscape, landscape to art and art to light. Offering over 70,000 square feet of new space for arts exhibition, education and special events, the Palmer is currently under construction, and is slated to open in the spring of 2024.
