The Seattle Asian Art Museum has released details of its forthcoming expansion and has asked the public for input. The institution, which has scheduled community outreach meetings in September and October, plans to close in the spring of 2017 and will remain shuttered until the project is completed approximately eighteen months later. The endeavor will involve adding 7,500-square-feet of new gallery and event space, an education studio, and storage space. This will be the first major upgrade in the museum’s eighty-three-year history.
