The Portland Museum of Art (PMA) in Maine, US, has launched an international competition for a new US$45m (€42.2m, £36m) extension that will see the historic art centre double its exhibition space.

A two-stage competition, teams have been invited to imagine ‘innovative and future-forward’ concepts for an expansion featuring galleries, classrooms, community spaces, an auditorium, offices, a photography centre and a rooftop restaurant and a sculpture park.

“PMA believes that arts and culture have a critical role to play in ensuring a bright and sustainable future for our region and the people who call it home. The values of diversity, equity, accessibility, and inclusivity must be the cornerstones of our future, and we need a campus that enables and embodies these goals,” said a statement signed by the museum’s board of directors.

“Our newest project, The PMA Blueprint: Building A Landmark For The Future, is a major step in ensuring our region’s future is defined by this bold vision. We are building a landmark for the future that reflects the values of the communities we serve and the communities we need to serve better.”

The deadline for applications is July 1.
