Hear from the architects developing the New O’Keeffe Museum

Join us at the Center for Contemporary Arts to hear from the architects of the new Georgia O’Keeffe Museum as they share an update on its design and construction. The presentation will include an explanation of the conceptual underpinnings of the design, the opportunities associated with the use of vernacular earthen building materials in a contemporary museum, and other unique features associated with the construction of the building.

Devendra Contractor, Principal and Founder of DNCA Architects, will present with Deirdre Harris (Principal) and Rebecca Wood (Associate).
