Inside, technology balances art with a dramatic, timber-framed truss roof. The building is electrically self-sufficient, with 44 photovoltaic panels, each capable of 13 KW hours, powering low-voltage fluorescent and LED lighting in multiple colors. The Museum’s photovoltaic system provides extra power to the public energy grid via a co-generation system. Heat is by natural gas.

The Museum fills all three floors of the 6,000 sq. ft. building. The top floor is the main gallery; the middle floor has galleries, a conference room and offices; and the bottom floor houses a café, mechanical rooms, rest rooms and more gallery space. The levels are connected by custom-designed, sweeping metal and glass stairways that allow visual access to all three floors from any place in the museum. The floors also are all connected by an elevator; the building is totally ADA compliant.
