Building Notice: Partial Closure of Teal Seating Area (Concourse level) starting this week

Posted by on .

Hello volunteers! Starting this week, Monday, January 8, a portion of the “Teal Seating Area” on the Concourse Level (area outside the entry to the volunteer lounge) will be closed and converted into a holding area for art crates from the KAWS: FAMILY exhibition.

Due to upcoming construction for the Dani Reiss Modern and Contemporary Gallery, the Gallery needs space to keep these large crates on-site for the duration of the exhibition.  This will likely be the first of many ongoing adjustments for construction, and we will keep you updated as we go.

What seating areas can staff, volunteers and visitors use on the Concourse Level? 

Seating will still be available for staff, volunteers and visitors at: 

  • The West end of the Teal Seating Area 
  • The Annex (formerly the AGO cafe)
  • The South Entrance 
  • Volunteers: the volunteer lounge, our usual gathering space, remains open as usual! No changes.
