Omaha’s Joslyn Art Museum to reopen after multimillion-dollar renovation

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – The new and improved Joslyn Art Museum in Omaha is reopening later this year.

The museum, which closed in 2022 for a multimillion-dollar renovation, is scheduled to open its doors again on Sept. 10.

The new Rhonda & Howard Hawks Pavilion expands the gallery space by more than 40%, officials said in a press release.

The museum’s two original buildings will house a “complete reinstallation” of its collection.

New exhibitions, featuring works by Kehinde Wiley and Eva LeWitt, will also be featured at Joslyn.

The museum is free and open to the public.

We are delighted to announce that Joslyn will reopen on September 10, 2024.
