One of FIU’s greatest traits is the compilation of art on display for student’s pleasure throughout campus. With sculptures along the walks and paintings on the walls, it is long overdue that Florida International University open an official museum on campus to collectively display these and other fine art pieces. After much anticipation, FIU is ready to open the new and official: Patricia and Phillips Frost Art Museum. The new Frost Art Museum was designed by internationally renowed architect Yann Weymouth. The outer portion of the museum is glass, constructed with a winding staircase that leads to 8,000 square feet of space for art exhibition. Nine galleries within the museum will contain permanent displays, while the remaining six display spaces will contain temporary exhibits. There will also be large storage rooms for artwork and to promote research. Much of the exhibit space will feature art pieces by the talented students of Florida International University. This new museum will be a great hangout spot with it’s large café, lecture hall, and museum shop. Nothing like caffeine and culture.. \P. Potter\Student FIU\
