Critical upgrades of the museum’s infrastructure to improve energy efficiency, climate control, and structural integrity.

The Seattle Art Museum (SAM) requests an Infrastructure and Capacity Building Challenge Grant of $500,000 from the National Endowment for the Humanities to support the renovation and expansion of the Seattle Asian Art Museum (SAAM). This project has three primary objectives: to make critical infrastructure upgrades that will bring the 1933 facility in line with modern museum standards; to enhance the visitor experience through a new and groundbreaking permanent collection installation, new special exhibition galleries, and dedicated education and art making space; and to improve the care of SAM’s renowned collection through modern high-density storage and a conservation center for Asian paintings. The total budget for this project is $54,000,000.  A Challenge Grant from the NEH, which will be matched 3:1, will help SAM to generate broad public awareness of this project and to secure critical funding from our community.
