Museum of Nebraska Art
The Museum of Nebraska Art (MONA) is home to a vast collection of inspirational art by Nebraska artists. MONA will be the cultural center of Nebraska art by expanding its collection, providing quality exhibitions, and preserving its historic building. Mass timber used on this project will ensure MONA’s legacy of beauty and sustainability. Cross-laminated timber (CLT) allows the structural system to be nearly carbon neutral on this project.
In a groundbreaking fusion of heritage and innovation, Timberlyne proudly contributed to the transformation of the Museum of Nebraska Art (MONA) in Kearney, Nebraska. This historic renovation and expansion project showcases our expertise in mass timber construction while preserving Nebraska's rich cultural heritage.
Project Highlights:
- 23,000-square-foot expansion seamlessly integrated with the historic building
- Innovative mass timber solutions that complement the museum's architectural character
- Sustainable design elements that enhance the visitor experience
- Custom-engineered timber components that support both form and function
Our mass timber solutions provide the perfect backdrop for MONA's mission as the state's only museum dedicated to celebrating Nebraska's artists. The renovated space creates an inspiring environment for both permanent collections and temporary exhibitions, demonstrating how modern timber construction can enhance cultural spaces.
