The exhibit designer is Washington D.C.-based design firm Howard+Revis, with architectural services provided by Southfield, MI-based Neumann / Smith Architecture. It will be a new, 31,000 SF+ standalone building, to house the University's collection of nearly 14,000 artifacts - mostly racist memorabilia.

The realization of this vision is a ways out still. Design is scheduled to run through 2021. 2022 will see a traveling exhibit and capital campaign. If all goes well, construction will then begin in 2023 and last through 2024.

Here are the conceptual drawings, from August 2019 -
