The generous square footage of the building provides expansive exhibition space, as well as options for more intimate collections. Placing DePaul University’s museum facilities to a nexus of pedestrian traffic encourages cultural exchange between the university and its community. The building’s exterior reflects the architecture of the nearby Seminary Avenue townhomes and continues the aesthetic tradition of the neighborhood’s unique character.
