LACMA Announces 2025 Plans Toward 2026 Grand Public Opening of New David Geffen Galleries

(Los Angeles, CA—March 11, 2025) The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) today announced that the public will be able to begin exploring multiple features of the new David Geffen Galleries in summer 2025, as the museum prepares for the April 2026 opening of this new home for its permanent collection. Major construction of the building, designed by Pritzker Prize–winning architect Peter Zumthor, was completed at the end of 2024, and LACMA has begun to move in key operating functions. While this process continues, the building and its surroundings will start to come to life with installations of outdoor sculpture, the openings of dining and retail spaces, and special preview events.
