Expanding the Windgate Art & Design building and increasing class offerings will begin in 2023. 

鈥淭his gift will meaningfully augment every aspect of our department: the ways we educate students in each of our degree programs, the scope of our exhibitions and art collections, and the services and programming we can offer to the River Valley region and broader art communities,鈥 Waugh said.

Increased offerings will affect book arts, 3D design, art history, graphic design, gallery and collections, museum preparator training, sculpture, ceramics, and digital fabrication, Waugh said.
