Lighting sustainability at Weatherspoon Art Museum

The Weatherspoon Art Museum (North Carolina) will renovate the lighting system in one of the museum’s galleries thanks to a $100,000 grant from the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation, as part of the Frankenthaler Climate Initiative.

The museum was built in 1989 and has had very limited upgrades to its infrastructure over the last three decades.

The Weatherspoon joins 79 museums across the country, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of International Folk Art, and the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami, in committing to climate responsibility in their communities.
