Founded as part of Montana State University to study and interpret the remarkable region in which it is located, the Museum of the Rockies if the largest natural history museum in the Northern Rockies.
Renovations to the existing museum and a 39,000-SF addition will enhance efficiency and provide a flexible gallery experience conducive to changing exhibits. An inviting new entry sequence will give the museum a more considerable presence on the campus and a dramatic entry atrium will offer opportunities for donor recognition and gathering space for both tour groups and off-hours special events.
