The Norton Museum heralded the opening of the public phase of its capital campaign with a presentation Tuesday by Foster + Partners, architects of the plan that’s expected to chart the facility’s growth for the next 10 to 15 years.
The plan will restore the original 1941 Marion Sims Wyeth design’s central east-west axis; reorient the entrance from the south side toward the more heavily traveled Dixie Highway; and add gallery, education and support spaces that will increase the museum’s size from 118,000 square feet to 132,000 square feet.
