The Next Big Step 2.0

In April 2010, MassArt launched a $140 million transformational campaign. Today, we are at nearly 90% of our goal. To reach the finish line, we need your help.

There are visible signs of progress everywhere on campus—and promise for greater things to come.

The Campus Center is open for business, with its beautiful new dining hall, student development offices, a student-run gallery, and first-class retail shop—MassArt Made—which features the work of MassArt alumni, faculty, and students.

The new $61.4 million Residence Hall has risen from an empty parking lot into a 21-story architectural gem along Huntington Avenue that will start housing students in September 2012.

The Center for Design and Media, now completely funded at $33 million, will be a state-of-the art facility combining technology with art and design curriculum.

Dramatic new renovations, planned for the Bakalar & Paine Galleries, are scheduled to begin in 2014.

We‘ve been working on raising our endowment from $9 million to $17 million so we can attract top talent with fellowships, grants, and financial aid, as well as broaden our community outreach.

And we’ve been focusing on elevating our annual giving to $2 million so we can add more scholarship awards and attract the most talented students to campus.

The Next Big Step 2.0, our newly updated campaign case book, is hot off the press. It illustrates the exciting transformation underway and features a special section with architectural renderings and floor plans designed by architects Machado & Silvetti for the Bakalar & Paine Galleries project.  http://issuu.com/massart/docs/massartcampaign
