Tampa Museum of Art announces $68 million expansion

The Tampa Museum of Art has announced a $68 million expansion for its downtown Tampa campus set to be completed in 2024.

The renovation will add a four-story glass structure to the waterfront, expanding the museum’s education and event spaces. The expansion will add about 51,000 square feet of new space along the Hillsborough River. That’s in addition to the museum’s 25,000 square foot renovation currently underway.

The goal is to integrate the museum with Tampa’s Riverwalk, bolstering the city’s downtown scene. More than 80% of the $80 million budget for the current renovations and future expansion will be privately funded.
