The new Studio Museum building will open its doors in Fall 2025! The new museum will allow us to expand our commitment to artists of African descent throughout their careers, to connect visitors to over 200 years of Black art history through our permanent collection, and to serve our community in ways never before possible.

Join today as a Founding Member and be among the first to stand with us in our new space! Founding Members will receive insider access to the new museum, as well as an invitation to an exclusive party during the opening week celebration.
