Prior to opening, BUOY was redesigned and upgraded to green building standards by ARQ Architects. The gallery now boasts solar-powered radiant heating, energy efficient lighting and 100% recycled insulation.

Now and into the future, BUOY promises to provide rewarding cultural experiences to the public while acting as an essential resource to artists from far away and close to home.
