A New Entrance for an Old Museum
A new entrance pavilion stands beside the Walker Art Building
Bowdoin College’s 1894 Walker Art Building, designed by Charles Follen McKim of McKim, Mead & White, reopens Saturday after a $20.8-million renovation that brings it air conditioning, additional space, and a striking new entrance pavilion by Machado and Silvetti Associates. Watch an audio slide show about the new entrance, the museum, and the museum’s next-door neighbor, Edward Larrabee Barnes’s famous 1975 Visual Arts Building.
