Studio Gang, in collaboration with Polk Stanley Wilcox, will design a major expansion of the Clinton Presidential Center in Little Rock, Arkansas. The proposed expansion will enhance the Clinton Center’s ability to host exhibitions, convene global leaders, and provide educational opportunities. It will also include the new Hillary Rodham Clinton Institute, which will be a dedicated home for the Former U.S. Secretary of State’s personal archive as well as serve as a hub for her non-profit and advocacy work.
Studio Gang’s expansion will build on the Clinton Center’s sustainable design, which was originally led by Polshek Partnership. The Clinton Center’s campus includes some of the first LEED-certified buildings in Arkansas, which have since earned Platinum and Gold certifications.
“The Clinton Presidential Center was built to set a new standard for environmental performance,” said Jeanne. “We are excited to be working with the Clinton Foundation to advance that legacy, while also strengthening the Clinton Center’s role as a welcoming hub for cultivating a new generation of global leaders.”
Since opening in 2004, the Clinton Center has welcomed more than five million visitors from around the world, including more than 500,000 students and educators. Through special exhibitions, public programs, and leadership programs for students and professionals, the Clinton Center has continued to carry out its mission to engage and educate people about President Clinton’s lifetime commitment to advancing opportunity for everybody, instilling responsibility throughout our society, and cultivating a shared sense of community.
More details about the expansion will be announced in 2024.
