About the Borland Project Space

The Borland Project Space seeks to showcase the vivacious research culture of Penn State's College of Arts and Architecture. With this notion we move beyond traditional exhibitions, performances and scholarly programming to expose the processes and procedures of “arts research,” which viewers seldom see. Home to several residences and projects, the space is open for visitors from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, throughout the academic year. For information on current and upcoming events, visit borlandprojectspace.psu.edu.
