Colorado State University Breaks Ground on Design Museum Expansion, Renovation
Colorado State University’s Avenir Museum of Design and Merchandising broke ground Jan. 27 on a key remodel and addition that will enhance the facility’s educational and research capabilities.
The project, located at 216 E. Lake St. in Fort Collins, will remodel approximately 8,000 sq ft of space in the current museum and add 10,000 sq ft, allowing for two galleries, classroom and seminar space, a conservation laboratory and expanded collection storage and management areas. CSU officials says the transformation will advance hands-on teaching and research access to the Avenir Museum collection.
