NON-REVENUE CONTRIBUTIONS - FORM 990, SCHEDULE M, PART I, LINE 33 In accordance with FASB's SFAS 116, the Museum does not treat donations of property of the types described in Part I of Schedule M as revenue or capitalize its collections because they are used to support its non-profit educational mission, and, should the property be sold, generally, proceeds from such sale would be used solely to acquire other items for the collection. These accounting standards are also endorsed by the American Alliance of Museums and the Association of Art Museum Directors (AAMD), of which organizations the Museum is a member.

Return Reference Explanation
FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICES The Metropolitan Museum of Art was founded on April 13, 1870, with a statement of purpose that has guided it for over 150 years: "to be located in the City of New York, for the purpose of establishing and maintaining in said city a Museum and library of art, of encouraging and developing the study of the fine arts, and the application of arts to manufacture and practical life, of advancing the general knowledge of kindred subjects, and, to that end, of furnishing popular instruction." The Met is devoted to a universal collection of art in the service of the public. During the 2022 strategic-planning process, the need for an updated, more inclusive and welcoming mission statement with a more tightly articulated expression of that purpose became apparent. To that end, on May 10, 2022, the Trustees of The Metropolitan Museum of Art reaffirmed the above statement of purpose and supplemented it with the following statement of mission: "The Metropolitan Museum of Art collects, studies, conserves, and presents significant works of art across time and cultures in order to connect all people to creativity, knowledge, ideas, and one another." In this context, we recognize that our position as one of just a few universal art museums brings both renown and great responsibilities, especially in a period when the public looks to us for meaning and inspiration. Our achievements in fiscal year 2025 underscored not only our commitment to fulfilling these responsibilities but to doing so in an exemplary and visionary way, as a leading global arts institution like The Met must. In fiscal year 2025, The Met welcomed 5.7 million visitors, 5 percent more than last year, a testament to the excellence and attraction of our programming across all of our spaces. We also made significant progress in a number of capital projects that will reshape the Museum for generations to come, as The Met's two-million-square-foot Fifth Avenue location stands at the threshold of an essential transformation. With the opening in May of the new Michael C. Rockefeller Wing for the arts of Africa, the ancient Americas, and Oceania, the Museum experience has been totally reimagined, and the forward-thinking trend will continue in coming years with the opening of the Oscar L. Tang and H.M. Agnes Hsu-Tang Wing, The Met's new space for international modern and contemporary art, in 2030; a new special exhibition gallery in the Great Hall in 2026, with a new 83rd Street entrance and reimagined spaces for dining and retail in a later phase; and new Galleries for the Art of Ancient West Asia and the Art of Ancient Cyprus in 2027. These superb new spaces will highlight the collection and tell new stories through art, while improving visitor experience, infrastructure, and sustainability. ON-SITE ATTENDANCE With over 5.7 million visitors to its two locations-The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Cloisters-in fiscal year 2025, the Museum's overall attendance grew by 5 percent compared to last year, and for the second consecutive year, local visitorship (New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey residents) exceeded pre-pandemic figures-a 109 percent recovery compared to 2019. Local attendance made up 62 percent of all visitors in fiscal year 2025, while domestic out-of-state visitors accounted for 23 percent. The Museum also tracked its highest single-day attendance since 2017 on opening day of The Michael C. Rockefeller Wing, May 31, 2025, when 33,700 visitors came to The Met. The Thomas J. Watson Library saw 9,903 visits by outside researchers in fiscal year 2025 and welcomed 2,764 new outside researchers. The Museum libraries circulated 66,907 items to readers and continued to digitize rare collection materials, both printed and manuscript, and to make them available online, averaging 190,819 hits per month. Deepening and strengthening relationships with local communities continues to be a core strategic goal for the Museum. The Government Affairs department meets this objective through a multipronged approach, including welcoming elected officials, community leaders, neighbors, local and outer-borough residents, and other individuals, many of whom may not traditionally have seen themselves reflected here. The department also offers unique opportunities to explore the galleries, meet curators, engage with art, and connect with staff and collections alike during Community Wednesdays (when the Museum is closed to the public), at after-hours events, and on days when the Museum is open late. The Government Affairs team also facilitates the Museum's role as a cooling center in the summer, a warm refuge in the winter, and a polling site for local residents for primary and general elections. These initiatives brought over 6,000 New Yorkers to the Museum in fiscal year 2025. Participating groups ranged from veterans, seniors, and teenagers to Special Olympics participants, migrant families, and elected officials, reaching audiences across all five boroughs of New York City and throughout Long Island. COLLECTION AND ACQUISITIONS The Met collection is the heart of the Museum, informing all of our programming. Its depth and diversity make it possible to tell the widest range of stories and engage ever more meaningfully with our audience. In fiscal year 2025, we made several notable additions to the collection, including: For the Department of Greek and Roman Art, we acquired a marble statue of Pan of outstanding quality that presents a rare composition and was made around the second century; for the Department of European Sculpture and Decorative, the Claudius Tazza, a gilded silver dish from 1587-99 that was likely crafted in Antwerp for a member of the Habsburg dynasty who asserted sovereignty by tracing their lineage back to imperial Rome; for the Department of European Paintings, one of only eight paintings by Ambrosius Bosschaert, the founding father of Dutch flower painting, that combine still life and landscape, Bouquet of Flowers, from 1620; for the Department of Asian Art, a large group of exceptional 18th-century Chinese color prints from Suzhou that will transform the Museum into one of just five essential destinations in the world for the study of early modern Chinese print culture; for the Department of Islamic Art, a painting by Osman Hamdi Bey (1842-1910), an Ottoman polymath and painter trained in Paris who painted in the French academic technique through Ottoman eyes, that is the first work by the artist to join The Met collection, At the Mosque Door, from 1879; and three works for the Department of Modern and Contemporary Art: a painting by Harlem Renaissance painter Laura Wheeler Waring-Girl in Pink Dress, from about 1927; one of Francis Picabia's early "Monster" paintings, L'Elegance, a celebrated series of vibrant, tongue-in-cheek compositions that occupied the artist beginning in 1924-25; and a work by Lorna Simpson, a striking painting that belongs to the artist's newest body of work, produced in 2024 during preparations for her recent solo exhibition at The Met, Lorna Simpson: Source Notes. THE MET COLLECTION AND CULTURAL PROPERTY With a vast and ever-evolving collection of more than 1.5 million objects from around the globe-from ancient to contemporary times-The Met is a truly universal museum. As such, we hold and care for important resources of world culture and are committed to the responsible collecting of art and the shared stewardship of the world's cultural heritage. Our work in this area is guided by a suite of initiatives and goals related to cultural property and collecting practices that we announced in spring 2023. These include expanding staff resources-The Met now has the largest provenance research team of any museum in the world-a focused, proactive review of works in the collection; engaging with countries around the world; and using The Met's platform to support and contribute to public discourse on this topic.
FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICES The Museum has long engaged with countries around the globe as part of its commitment to the shared stewardship of the world's cultural heritage, and in recent years has established a number of key international partnerships. These include agreements with India, Thailand, Nigeria, Korea, and the Republic of Italy. For example, this year, following collaborative research, The Met and The Hellenic Republic of Greece announced in February 2025 the return of a seventh-century BCE Bronze Head of a Griffin to Greece, which will be loaned back to The Met for an exhibition in 2026. This follows an already-in-progress landmark 50-year partnership that The Met and Greece have with the Greek government and the Museum of Cycladic Art regarding Leonard N. Stern's Collection of Cycladic art that brought 161 stunning Cycladic artifacts from the Leonard N. Stern Collection-which includes nearly all the major types of Cycladic marble figurines representing the Late Neolithic period to the end of the Early Bronze Age-to The Met for a long display and includes a series of cultural exchanges and opportunities. For example, in February of this year, as part of the Museum's Cultural Heritage Now convening series, we presented a panel discussion between The Met and Greece in "The Cyclades at The Met, a New Model of Collaboration," featuring Met curators and scientists, representatives from the Hellenic Ministry of Culture, and others. As another example this fiscal year, in September 2024 the Museum announced a loan agreement whereby 14 ancient sculptures that a private collector in New Zealand voluntarily repatriated to the Republic of Yemen would be transferred to The Met. At the Museum, the works-from the Hague family collection-will be studied and catalogued until Yemen requests their return. The loan follows the historic custodial agreement established between The Met and Yemen in 2023, whereby The Met is now caring for and displaying two ancient stone works that the Museum had repatriated from its own collection after provenance research led by Met scholars established that the works rightfully belong to the Republic of Yemen. As part of a commitment to transparency, The Met has launched object webpages for all restituted works of art, specifying that the object has been returned and to what country. EXHIBITIONS AND PUBLICATIONS In fiscal year 2025, the Museum's exhibitions team mounted 38 exhibitions and installations. Groundbreaking major commissions and fresh explorations of historically important artists shared the lineup with innovative and thematic presentations to make new connections in art across time periods, from ancient to modern. The following exhibitions were among the highlights in fiscal year 2025: Chinese Painting and Calligraphy: Selections from the Collection; Mary Sully: Native Modern; Ink and Ivory: Indian Drawings and Photographs Selected with James Ivory; The Three Perfections: Japanese Poetry, Calligraphy, and Painting from the Mary and Cheney Cowles Collection; A Decade on Paper: Recent Acquisitions, 2014-2024; The Genesis Facade Commission: Lee Bul, Long Tail Halo; Mexican Prints at the Vanguard; Man-dalas: Mapping the Buddhist Art of Tibet; Paris through the Eyes of Saint-Aubin; Materialized Space: The Architecture of Paul Rudolph; Siena: The Rise of Painting, 1300-1350; Floridas: Anastasia Samoylova and Walker Evans; Jesse Krimes: Corrections; Flight into Egypt: Black Artists and Ancient Egypt, 1876-Now; Art Work: Artists Working at The Met; The Great Hall Commission: Tong Yang-Tze, Dialogue; Colorful Korea: The Lea R.

Irving Penn: Centennial traveled to A Corua, Spain (November 23, 2024-May 1, 2025) and From Impressionism to Early Modernism: French Masterpieces from the Robert Lehman Collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art traveled to the National Palace Museum, Taipei (June 14-October 12, 2025). The Publications and Editorial Department produced 19 new titles and 6 reprints, displaying a remarkable breadth of topics and formats. Among these were the highly successful exhibition catalogues Caspar David Friedrich: The Soul of Nature, which went into a second printing, and Sargent and Paris, which went into three printings; the acclaimed Costume Institute publication, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style; along with such boundary-pushing exhibition catalogues as Flight into Egypt: Black Artists and Ancient Egypt, 1876-Now; Lorna Simpson: Source Notes; Monstrous Beauty: A Feminist Revision of Chinoiserie; and Materialized Space: The Architecture of Paul Rudolph. Other notable publications include How to Read African Textiles, published to coincide with the opening of The Michael C. Rockefeller Wing, and The Three Perfections: Japanese Poetry, Calligraphy, and Painting, as well as two volumes published simultaneously in both English and Spanish: the monograph Suspended Moment: The Architecture of Frida Escobedo and the Bulletin Mexican Prints at the Vanguard. Exemplifying the critical acclaim garnered by our books, the catalogue Juan de Pareja won the prestigious Jonathan Brown Award and The Harlem Renaissance and Transatlantic Modernism was shortlisted for the Alfred H. Barr Jr. Award, while Hidden Faces, Mandalas: Mapping the Buddhist Art of Tibet, and Sargent and Paris were named "Best Books of the Year" by the Times Literary Supplement, The New York Times, and the Observer. The online platform MetPublications continued to be an essential resource for students and scholars, with 700,000 global visitors annually, more than half of whom visited for the first time. EDUCATION In fiscal year 2025, the Education Department again engaged audiences through a wide range of innovative programming, presenting 15 percent more events than last year. A total of 581,117 visitors-a 26 percent increase over fiscal year 2024-attended 25,999 on-site events at The Met Fifth Avenue and The Met Cloisters, while 89,910 engaged virtually in hybrid events and programs offered exclusively online. Deepening longstanding relationships with local communities and partner organizations is foundational to our work, and this year we advanced cultural engagement and fostered a sense of belonging among several historically excluded audiences, welcoming over 500 visitors for 21 exclusive exhibition and collection tours. Participating community partners-such as the Center for Art and Advocacy, Black Girls in Art Spaces, and South Asian Youth Action-also received complimentary passes to encourage return visits. October's Da de Muertos Celebration at The Met Cloisters drew over 3,000 attendees, the highest number of visitors there since it reopened in 2020. Community partners from across the five boroughs offered programs in Spanish and English. After six years, our Civic Practice Partnership residency concluded this year. An initiative supported by The William R. Kenan Jr. Charitable Trust, it allowed eight artists and collectives based in the Bronx, Bedford-Stuyvesant, Crown Heights, Chinatown, and East Harlem to collaborate with their neighbors on projects inspired by The Met collection, with the final cohort of artists-Brooklyn Hi-Art! Machine, OlaRonke Akinmowo, and Alethea Pace-presenting their culminating projects this year. In March 2025, the new Vacheron Constantin Artisan Residency launched with Aspen Golann, Joy Harvey, and Ibrahim Said selected for the 18-month program, which will culminate in the production of an original work of art and interactive programs with the public. We also redoubled our efforts to bring Met programs directly to the community by participating in the annual Harlem Week Children's Festival and Harlem Grown's Earth Day Celebration, hosting the Fourth Annual Toy Drive with Union Settlement in East Harlem, and curating a holiday dinner at Refettorio Harlem to mark the loan of Henry Ossawa Tanner's artwork Thankful Poor from the Art Bridges Foundation. A total of over 1,200 New Yorkers were served through these offsite engagements.
FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICES In offsite programs related to exhibitions, we hosted two exhibition preview conversations celebrating the Costume Institute's Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, at the Apollo Stages in Victoria Theater in Harlem and the Billie Holiday Theatre in Brooklyn. The Harlem conversation focused on the cultural and historic style legacy of the neighborhood and featured Harlemites Jonathan McCrory of the National Black Theatre, historian and fashion icon Lana Turner, and bandleader Dandy Wellington. It attracted 180 with over 100 people joining the livestream and 7,000 views of the recording. The Brooklyn conversation featured the exhibition design duos Ev Bravado and Tla D'Amore of Who Decides War, and Dynasty and Soull Ogun of L'Enchanteur. The Billie Holiday Theatre sold out with an audience of 200, with 100 people joining the livestream and over 3,000 views of the recording. The exhibition Monstrous Beauty: A Feminist Revision of Chinoiserie inspired a partnership with Mott Street Girls for guided walking tours in Chinatown-visiting murals on Doyers Street and a multigenerational family-owned porcelain shop from the 1890s run by the fifth-generation owner, a former Met Civic Practice Partnership Artist in Residence, Mei Lum. Both tours sold out, with 60 people participating. This year's large-scale Museum-wide festivals included our annual Met Fall Fest, Lunar New Year, and Museum Mile, drawing over 40,000 visitors of all ages for performances, art making, talks, and connection with over 25 community partners. On May 31, the Museum marked the reopening of the new Michael C. Rockefeller Wing with a day-long celebration that saw a record 33,000 visitors in a single day. Activities included live music, talks, artist demonstrations and drop-in art making, and film screenings, engaging scholars and artists from the three collection regions as well as the wing's architect Kulapat Yantrasast in conversation with Met leadership. The Museum again served as a cultural hub for young people. Our popular Teens Take The Met! engaged 3,285 teens this year in activities led by 62 cultural and community-based organizations and 15 internal department collaborators; the teen copyist program inspired 24 teens; and our regular Teen Fridays drew 690 New York City teens in a laboratory for creative and social exploration. The Your Met Art Box program, designed to reduce isolation and foster wellness among New York City's elderly population, continues to expand. Presented in partnership with the New York City Department for the Aging, it grew by 44 percent, bringing monthly art-making activities and conversations to 104 older adult centers. The program engaged over 1,800 participants, several of whom subsequently visited the Museum for the first time, compliments of The Met. Our Discoveries workshops engage children and adults on the autism spectrum and their care-givers, and this year Education partnered with the Musical Instruments Galleries for live music listening opportunities in the gallery and the chance to create instruments in conjunction with the Jennie C. Jones Roof Garden Commission. As always, The Met remained an essential resource for teaching, training, and learning at all levels. This year, more than 184,945 K-12 teachers and students participated in 98 virtual and 37,053 in-person guided tours of The Met collection, and 147,794 in self-guided tours. In addition, more than 1,181 teachers and school leaders participated in programs focused on integrating art into the classroom and further strengthened multidisciplinary art learning to attract educators from a wider variety of disciplines. Advancing research and scholarship and supporting professional development is another priority of the Education Department. The reopening of the Rockefeller Wing galleries was an opportunity to welcome 14 university faculty and administrators for a behind-the-scenes tour of the galleries while under construction and serve as a resource for university faculty as both scholars and educators. This fiscal year, we hosted 113 high school interns and 97 undergraduate and graduate interns for paid internships in over 20 departments, providing training, networking, and community building opportunities. We also hosted 21 high school scholars from 20 different New York City Housing Authority developments from Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx for a 40-hour internship as part of The Met NYCHA Art and Culture Scholars leadership development program. We also continued to strengthen our commitment to research in support of our fellowship program, hosting 38 international fellows-scholars, conservators, and scientists-from 11 different countries in 22 departments. This year's annual series Research Out Loud: Met Fellows Present drew over 1,600 visitors online and in person. We also awarded nine travel grants to Met staff for research and professional development related to their work. Exhibitions are also crucial laboratories for innovative interpretive projects. Advance audience research for Sargent and Paris led us to create an analog interactive inspired by the Paris Salon of 1884. Visitors were invited to reflect, sketch, or critique their experience in the exhibition and leave it for others to see. The interactive inspired 10,000+ responses. In conjunction with Mandalas: Mapping the Buddhist Art of Tibet, a class of 15 students explored mindfulness and connections between art and Buddhist devotional images in a uniquely Met program that also included a study of brain activity during moments of calm. A week-long Teen Studio fashion design intensive drew 17 high school students to create designs inspired by Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion, culminating with a fashion show in which the designers walked the runway in their ensembles. And 45 K-12 educators explored Mexican Prints at the Vanguard, focusing on works and themes and making prints with an artist from the organization New Latin Wave in anticipation of developing classroom connections for their students. Interdisciplinary programs that combine external viewpoints with expert Met staff perspectives included an exciting range of high-profile speakers, expanding audience understanding and sparking new connections for 17,500 in-person visitors and 88,000 online. A dialogue between classicist Mary Beard and filmmaker Martin Scorsese explored their mutual interest in the ancient Roman world and inspiration found in objects in The Met's Greek and Roman collection. Composer John Zorn shared a powerful performance accompanying a reading of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass prompted by the exhibition A New Art: American Photography, 1839-1910. Writer, animal expert, and autism advocate Temple Grandin shared her groundbreaking work on visual thinking and made connections to the works on view by Dakota artist Mary Sully. We also piloted Met Expert Talks en Espaol led by Spanish-speaking curators, conservators, artists, and scholars, engaging over 250 participants. Topics in our daylong symposia and Creative Convenings, where external scholars and artists share perspectives and knowledge, ranged from chia oil in colonial Mexican artworks to how Black artists have engaged with ancient Egypt over the last 150 years, to a critical look at the historical style of Chinoiserie and its afterlives, and American photography from 1839 to the first decade of the 20th century. The programs drew 1,260 in person and almost 6,000 online. The International Residency program expanded beyond Africa this year to bring seven scholars from seven countries in Africa, South America, and Europe to The Met to consult on research and interpretive projects related to The Michael C. Rockefeller Wing reopening and works in The Met's Cycladic collection. Families with young children continue to be a priority audience as we develop the next generation of art lovers. In fiscal year 2025, the 81st Street Studio, our discovery and play space, welcomed 200,000 visitors and has become a hub for families with children from infants to upper elementary school age. Over 9,000 attended Storytime programs, and the studio was also a resource for New York City's public schools, engaging 852 students for 24 class visits, almost 60 percent of which were from Title I schools in New York City. Monthly Family Afternoons provided learning opportunities for 1,700 young people and their families. The March program celebrated Women in STEAM, featuring Met staff in Scientific Research and Objects Conservation departments and a software engineer who worked on digital offerings in the 81st Street Studio.
FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICES LIVE ARTS The Museum's Department of Live Arts presented a total of 84 performances in fiscal year 2025-83 percent of which were offered free with Museum admission-and reached a total audience of nearly 8,000 visitors. Among the highlights in this year's MetLiveArts season were several major projects that showcased the Museum's collection and iconic spaces. In a first for The Met, live performance was featured as an integral part of a major exhibition in the form of a dedicated gallery called the Performance Pyramid within the exhibition Flight into Egypt: Black Artists and Ancient Egypt, 1876-Now. In the space, 11 live performance events featured artists in the genres of music, theater, dance, and performance art, resulting in a documentary history of Black performance art incorporating ancient Egyptian themes. At The Met Cloisters, Live Arts commissioned and presented two large-scale, site-specific works: Primero Sueo, a new processional opera by Paola Prestini and Magos Herrera based on the writings of the medieval Mexican nun Sor Juana Inez de la Cruz; and Forest of Metal Objects,a site-specific percussion piece by Michael Gordon that took advantage of The Met Cloisters' unique acoustical properties, combining them with theatrical and choreographic staging by Paul Lazar and Annie B. Parson. The Met Cloisters was also the site of a three-night marathon performance of eminent composer Philip Glass's complete string quartets, performed by the acclaimed ensemble Brooklyn Rider, and Glass himself attended the first night of the cycle. DIGITAL The Museum's website ended fiscal year 2025 with 29 million users, of which 35 percent were international. The most visited sections of the website were The Met Collection, the Heilbrunn Timeline of Art History, exhibition information, and ticketing. The Digital Department focused on enhancing the user experience across these key areas, introducing new features and design improvements tailored to diverse audiences. Highlights included citation buttons on Timeline essays to support students and more scannable layouts on exhibition pages to aid visit planners. In support of the reopening of The Michael C. Rockefeller Wing, the Digital Department launched an impressive slate of interpretive content that had been in the making for several years. In video, the team published 16 videos that were directed by filmmaker Sosena Solomon and co-produced with the World Monuments Fund about vital conservation and preservation work across Africa; three animated maps that visualize the complex and interconnected histories of migration and trade in Africa, Oceania, and the ancient Americas; three videos that provide virtual tours of objects in the collection; and a host of artist profile and archival videos. The team also produced a suite of articles and essays to coincide with the reopening, three video tours of the galleries, and three audio guides, including a Spanish-language version for the Arts of the Ancient Americas. The second season of The Met's narrative nonfiction podcast Immaterial featured eight new episodes highlighting important works from The Met collection and experts from diverse backgrounds. Since the launch of Immaterial in 2022, it has accumulated more than 310,000 downloads resulting in more than 3 million minutes of total listening time by roughly 37,000 unique listeners. The department's video production teams continued to produce engaging stories in popular formats, such as artist interviews, exhibition tours, and stories about conservation. We also launched new video initiatives this year-YouTube Shorts and YouTube Podcasts-that contributed to an overall gain of 52,000 subscribers and 29 million minutes of engagement time. Again this year, the Digital Department commissioned prominent authors to write personal essays reflecting on The Met collection and published pieces from a number of authors. The team also produced and published videos featuring renowned novelist Amor Towles, Nobel Prize-winning writer Orhan Pamuk, and famed designer Todd Oldham. The Digital Department supports special exhibitions with a wide range of content. In fiscal year 2025, the team produced audio guides for Siena: The Rise of Painting (1300-1350); Caspar David Friedrich: The Voice of Nature Within; Monstrous Beauty: A Feminist Revision of Chinoiserie; The New Art: American Photography 1839-1910; and Sargent and Paris. The audio guides were made available for free on the website's exhibition and audio guide pages, contributing to over 114,000 total listeners on the website. The team also produced audio guides for The American Wing at 100 reinstallation as well as the Leonard N. Stern Collection of Cycladic Art. The Museum's social media reach is broad: its Instagram has more than 4.5 million followers, X (formerly Twitter) has more than 4.1 million followers, Facebook has more than 2.3 million followers, LinkedIn has more than 430,000 followers, and TikTok reached more than 1.2 million followers. This year the Museum expanded its digital reach by redoubling efforts on Chinese-language social media platforms Weibo and WeChat, garnering 66,500 and 27,500 followers, respectively. CAPITAL PROJECTS In fiscal year 2025 the Museum's Capital Projects Department saw major milestones in a number of transformative projects that constitute the most ambitious change to The Met campus since the completion of the Roche Dinkeloo masterplan in the 1990s. Nearly a quarter of the Museum's spaces is in the process of being transformed. The Michael C. Rockefeller Wing was completed and opened to the public in May 2025. The project transforms how the Museum presents its collections of the art of sub-Saharan Africa, the ancient Americas, and Oceania, and also consisted of major upgrades to the building's infrastructure, including the construction of a new sloped glass wall on the south side of the Museum. Construction began in 2021, and the project was overseen by the design architect Kulapat Yantrasast of the firm WHY, with Beyer Blinder Belle Architects LLP serving as executive architect. The Oscar L. Tang and H.M. Agnes Hsu-Tang Wing continued to progress through the design phase, with architect Frida Escobedo working closely with the curatorial teams and Capital Projects and leadership staff to further develop a cohesive concept design proposal for the new wing, which will prioritize the presentation of 20th- and 21st-century art in 75,000 square feet of gallery space and 7,500 square feet of exterior terrace space. Following the conclusion of the schematic design phase in fall 2024, the Museum began an extensive outreach process to elected officials and community advocacy groups. After successful meetings with numerous Community Boards, the Landmarks Preservation Commission approved the plans for the new Tang Wing and work to prepare for the demolition of the existing building, including art deinstallation, is now underway. Construction has begun on the reimagined galleries for the Art of Ancient West Asia and the Art of Ancient Cyprus. The project will introduce an innovative and forward-thinking approach to presenting art from a vast region that includes ancient Iraq, Iran, Turkey, Syria, the Eastern Mediterranean coast, Yemen, and Central Asia. Boston-based architectural firm NADAAA, led by principal designer Nader Tehrani, is overseeing the project, which includes significant modifications to the skylights and attics above. The galleries have been closed for art deinstallation and are scheduled to reopen in 2027. In other major projects that are now underway, The Met Store adjacent to the Great Hall closed in January 2025 for construction of a new 11,500-square-foot gallery that will display the Costume Institute's annual spring show and, at times, shows from other curatorial departments. The new Great Hall gallery is on track to open in May 2026. The other components of the Great Hall Project continued through the design phase this fiscal year. The project will encompass the activation of the Museum's entrance at 83rd Street and Fifth Avenue to allow for easier public access into the Museum and also includes the reconfiguration of the spaces for dining and The Met Store. The project is being overseen by the firms Peterson Rich Office and Beyer, Blinder, Belle Architects LLP. At a time when the world increasingly looks to us for meaning and inspiration, our Trustees and staff-their dedication, deep knowledge, and quest for excellence-are the reason we are able to fulfill our mission and provide our global audience with truly impactful opportunities for experiencing the art, cultures, and narratives that shape our times.
