The $9.5 million, 25,500 sq. ft. Mary and Bruce Stevenson Wing is the largest cultural capital project in the Gorge region in 15 years. The design is energy efficient, sustainable and honors the nearly 100-year-old museum building, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Key features of the new wing include: a dedicated art education center to accommodate Maryhill's wide range of public programming; a centralized collections suite for improved storage of more than 20,000 objects, and to give curators and researchers more efficient access to the museum's world-class collections; an outdoor plaza to provide improved visitor access to Maryhill's extraordinary setting and growing collection of large-scale sculpture; and, a new cafe with terrace seating and stunning views of the Columbia River Gorge.
