Description

The Glenbow Museums new home at the JR Shaw Centre for Arts and Culture features a major renovation by Dialog architect Tyler Claiborne, transforming a brutalist structure into a light-filled, equitable space. The design includes a worlds longest deep blue bench, an angled entry facing east for Indigenous traditions, skylights creating a Great Lobby, and wooden stairs wrapped around the elevator shaft for equal arrival views. The museum aims to reopen in 2027 with 44 exhibits across 325,000 square feet, sparking conversations and lighting up Calgary.
