This session took place during the Western Museums Association 2013 Annual Meeting

In an improving economy, many institutions are ready to consider a move from strategic planning to the design and construction of new or renovated facilities. This session will present the issues to consider in making this transition including funding, board and community relations, sustainable design and the museum environment, and the design and construction process. The recently completed Museum of History and Industry (MOHAI) and the Seattle Art Museum (SAM) projects in Seattle, Washington serve as case studies.

Moderator:
Maryann Jordan, Vice-Director, Seattle Art Museum

Presenters:
Sam Miller, Partner, LMN Architects
Mike Stanley, Principal, The Seneca Group
