Nerman Museum

Nerman Museum

No this isn’t Elgin. This is a new contemporary art museum for Johnson County Community College in Kansas. A community college with a real art museum–that’s sort of intriguing…

The new museum where many of these works will hang is under construction on the east side of campus.
It was launched in August 2003 with a 1.5 million gift from the Nerman family of Leawood and designed by internationally recognized architect Kyu Sung Woo. The 36,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art structure will include 4,000 square feet for display of the permanent collection, 5,000 square feet of temporary exhibition space, a gallery devoted to Kansas City artists and a new media gallery designed for multimedia and installation works.
