The Carter closed its second floor galleries on Tuesday, January 23, as it is currently replacing the roof of the building. A spokesperson for the museum stated that this was “part of routine maintenance.” The museum website indicates that the first floor galleries are open to the public, and while the mezzanine galleries are currently closed, they will reopen in early March.

The museum, which opened in 1961, has undergone various renovation projects over the years. In 2019 the building was closed for three months while the galleries underwent a major redesign. In 2014, the museum underwent a four-month renovation project to improve its climate control; while public programs were halted, the building remained opened to the general public.
During this current maintenance project, the museum will continue to offer public programs, including its annual Spring Break activities. The free program will be held from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. each day from Tuesday, March 12 through Friday, March 15.
