In the aptly named “Form and Function” section of Modern Magazine’s Winter 2016 issue, Margot Ammidown remarked that “of all the institutions with a Bauhaus legacy, Black Mountain retains the image of a creative arcadia that produced many of the great artists of the mid-twentieth century.”

Our {Re}OPENING marks the completion of Phase 1 of our Windgate Charitable Foundation-funded expansion project. Our space has been redesigned and renovated by internationally-known artist and designer Randy Shull.
Shull has sculpted a more accessible museum, library, and study center with multiple ways to access the history and legacy of BMC, a more efficient workspace, and an immersive gallery that takes its aesthetic inspiration and orientation from Black Mountain College.
Today is the last day to view Dan Rice at Black Mountain College: Painter Among the Poets. The show is closing down early in preparation for the museum opening up at the end of January with a redesigned space and new exhibition Poemumbles – 30 years of Susan Weil’s poem/images.
