Construction Update - 9.7.2017
September 7, 2017 by Jess
Dear Umbrella Commuity,
Last week we had an in depth meeting to get exact times for upcoming construction and we're excited to announce that "early early" construction starts on Monday, September 11!
Starting on Monday September 11, our front entrance will officially be closed to the public. The main entrance will be the back teal door by Deb Richardson's studio. The glass door will also still be open.
Construction workers will put up temporary walls at the front entrance and around where the elevator will be built on the 1, 2, and 3 floors. This work will take place throughout next week. All artists will still have access to their studios.
The following week, they will begin the demolition and construction work required to turn what is currently the development office and the dance studio into artist studios. This work is scheduled to be completed by Thursday, September 28. The artists impacted by the elevator will then move on Friday, September 29.
Elevator construction will continue through mid-January 2018 at which point the front entrance will re-open.
Feel free to reach out with any questions, we will continue to post new information on the Construction Updates blog as it becomes available.
Best,
Miranda Aisling Hynes
Director of Operations and Visual Arts
