The Broad museum in Los Angeles, renowned for its free contemporary art collection, has announced a significant expansion plan. With a $100 million investment, the expansion aims to nearly double its gallery space by adding 55,000 square feet of exhibition, programming, and storage space, thereby increasing the museum's gallery space by 70%. Expected to break ground in early 2025, the project is anticipated to be completed before the 2028 Summer Olympics. Since its opening in 2015, The Broad has become one of the most popular museums in the city. This expansion is seen as a game changer for downtown LA, potentially enhancing its appeal and flexibility.
