Housatonic Community College (Housatonic Museum of Art)

The Housatonic Museum of Art, Housatonic Community College, will hire an independent contractor to design, supply, and install custom, cost-effective modern-day storage systems that optimize the physical footprint of the current storage areas, improve organization, and maximize storage capacity for the museum's extensive collection of paintings, sculptures, textiles, and other objects. During the project, the museum will confirm the design of the new storage area, move all artwork to other storage spaces for temporary holding, order and produce storage designs, install storage units and racks; and move artwork into newly-reconfigured storage areas. Project success will be measured by an increase in the number of works that are stored under conditions that ensure the collection's preservation.
