The Getty Center in Los Angeles will close to the public from March 15, 2027, until spring 2028 to undergo a major modernization project focused on accessibility, energy resilience, and HVAC upgrades. During the closure, the Getty Villa will remain open and will feature a temporary gallery of paintings relocated from the Center's collection. The institution also plans to open a new programming space on Sepulveda Boulevard and has acquired property in Westwood for scholar housing.
