The new Museum of Arts and Design at 2 Columbus Circle will open to the public in September 2008. Located at the southwest corner of Central Park, where four subway lines and seven bus lines intersect, the Museum's new home is well-positioned to serve over 500,000 visitors annually.

The Museum at 2 Columbus Circle will be a vibrant and engaging cultural center like no other institution in the city. Offering more than double the exhibition space of our current location, our new home will present a fully integrated visitor experience for our rapidly growing audiences. For the first time in its history, the Museum will have dedicated space for its permanent collection. The entire sixth floor will house our educational programs and three artist-in-residence studios, making the Museum the first multi-disciplinary institution to offer arts-in-education, hands-on art-making, and art making within the museum experience.
