2-story structure to double gallery space

The Vero Beach Museum of Art, one of the most visited small art museums in the country, is about to elevate its presence — literally and figuratively. The museum will double its exhibition space with a new 90,000-square-foot building that blends art, architecture and the natural beauty of its Riverside Park setting. The structure will sit nine feet higher than the current facility.
