Ohio Wesleyan University (Richard M. Ross Art Museum)

Log Number: IGSM-249444-OMS-21

The Ross Art Museum at Ohio Wesleyan University will increase storage capacity to reduce overcrowding of unframed artworks; improve physical object safety in ground-level storage; and organize their collection by size, medium, and artist. The project is a culmination of recommendations made from recent Collections Assessment for Preservation (CAP) and Museum Assessment Program (MAP) reports. Increasing their storage capacity and optimizing organization will result in better care and management of the museum’s existing artworks, as well as provide the museum with new opportunities to engage artists and alumni through continued acquisitions.
