Strathmore Hall Arts Center

Bethesda, Maryland

Constructed in 1902, this Neo-Classical mansion and 11 acres of the original estate are now home to a county-owned facility for visual, literary and performing arts. Working closely with this public/private partnership, QUINN EVANS | ARCHITECTS completed the design and construction documentation for two additions and the comprehensive interior rehabilitation of the arts center.

Serving over 100,000 people annually, the design challenge was to create additional space within this historic mansion. The new 4,200-square-foot addition houses a museum shop, conference room, offices, public restrooms and two egress stairs. Rehabilitation of the existing mansion provided for museum-quality exhibition galleries, new administrative offices, and improved visitor and service circulation.
