Tour of the Progressing Concrete Art and Design Museum Construction Site
Check out the latest news on the Museum for Concrete Art and Design! The upcoming culture and education committee meeting had a tour of the museum's construction site, and lucky for us, the press was invited too.
Dr. Theres Rohde, the museum's director, and Andreas Schächtel from the Building Department gave us a sneak peek of the progress on this historic building. The concrete work on the administration and museum education "box" is almost complete, and you can already picture where the cloakrooms, toilets, and even the first pieces of the glass facade will be installed. Temporary structures currently support the basement, but get ready to rock out this summer as they've got something special planned!
That's right; if everything goes smoothly, two construction site concerts will take place here on June 21 and 22 as part of the AUDI Summer Concerts. These won't be your average band gigs; these concerts will guide the audience on an exhilarating journey through the new museum spaces alongside the performers.
So mark your calendars and hold on tight for an unforgettable musical experience like no other!

P.S. If you're craving more architecture and museum-related news, here are some tidbits:
- The Charles Macdonald House (Concrete House Museum) features concrete art and design programs but doesn't have specific concerts or construction site events planned yet [1].
- Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is undergoing a concrete design transformation, but there's no mention of concerts at a construction site [2].
- The National Building Museum and the V&A Museum in London might have interesting architectural and design-related activities, but they're not related to construction site concerts. The Museum of Emotions focuses on architecture to evoke emotional states, but it seems unrelated to construction site concerts [3][4][5].
Though not directly related, you can contact the Museum for Concrete Art and Design for the most accurate and up-to-date information on their upcoming concerts!
