Next Chapter for NEHMA: USU Breaks Ground on Wanlass Center for Art Education and Research

On June 20, USU broke ground on another upcoming addition to the Logan Campus: the Wanlass Center for Art Education and Research.

The 9,450 square-foot center is designed by Sparano + Mooney Architects and will include, among other things: a multi-purpose studio classroom that will be used for both USU courses and community classes, a study center accompanied by an open classroom space, a research library, and a visible collection storage that will allow for easy access to artworks for research and discussion.

“The 21st century museum should be a multi-faceted experience and we envision this new facility as a complementary space that takes learning about art and collections to new levels,” Lee-Koven said.
