Building the Buffalo AKG Art Museum

About the Project

In late 2019, Albright-Knox leaders and elected officials broke ground on the construction of the future Buffalo AKG Art Museum. Our construction manager, Gilbane Building Company, has completed the steel frame of the new Jeffrey E. Gundlach Building and is now focusing on enclosures and interior work. The Buffalo AKG Art Museum is scheduled to open in the first half of 2023. Learn More
