"Artists are powerful change-makers...Expanding access to their work is essential."
— Joanne Heyler, Founding Director
A Decade Is Just The Beginning
With construction on our expansion now underway, we’re creating more space for art, ideas, and connection.
Opening in 2028 before Los Angeles hosts the Olympic and Paralympic Games, the expansion will bring you closer to the work of artists you can consistently see in depth only at The Broad—by Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jeff Koons, Kara Walker, and so many others—as well as artists new to the collection—such as Cauleen Smith, Lauren Halsey, and Patrick Martinez. Outdoor, top-floor courtyards, galleries that welcome you into art storage, and flexible live programming spaces for boundary-breaking performances and concerts will round out a visit to The Broad of the future.
“Expanding the museum reflects our belief in the importance of art as a resource for everyone and in the vision Eli and I shared for Los Angeles as a world art capital.”
— Edythe L. Broad, Co-founder

"Over the last decade, The Broad has become a destination. Attendance has exceeded all initial projections (an estimated 6.7 million admissions). It is where I reliably send visitors to LA."
10 Year Celebration Weekend
On September 20 and 21, visitors joined The Broad in celebrating 10 years with free access to Jeffrey Gibson: the space in which to place me, plus music, a photo booth, pop-up tours throughout the day, and more.
