Support the Future Buffalo AKG Art Museum

As part of our construction of the Buffalo AKG Art Museum, the museum will create a new work of signature architecture on the north end of its historic campus. The revitalized museum will be poised to serve as an essential element of the region’s tourism ecosystem. As a result of this project, the museum’s annual economic impact is expected to increase by more than 30%.

The project, designed by OMA/Shohei Shigematsu in collaboration with Cooper Robertson, will more than double the number of masterworks on view and will add much-needed visitor amenities, including an Indoor Town Square that will be free and open to the public. The design will also repatriate more than a half acre of green space and more fully integrate the museum’s three epoch-defining buildings with Delaware Park, creating new synergies between nature, architecture, and the vistas that connect them.

Your gift goes well beyond bricks and mortar. Your contribution will help ensure the sustained vibrancy of the museum’s educational and exhibition programming as well as its ability to make these experiences accessible to all visitors.

To learn more about specific opportunities for your philanthropy to transform the museum through the Capital Campaign, please contact the Advancement Office at 716.270.8207.

We look forward to building the future hand in hand with you.
