MUSEUMS & GALLERIES

Many cultural centers, such as galleries and museums, have outdoor structures as well as indoor spaces. Outdoor areas may include parking lots, entrances, gardens in a historic property, outdoor sculpture gardens, playgrounds and other spaces. Shade structures for galleries and museums from USA SHADE and Fabric Structures can help keep spaces comfortable and welcoming for visitors and employees alike.

USA SHADE has worked with multiple galleries and museums throughout our nearly 30 years of business. We created a custom sail shade for the Faye Sarkowsky Sculpture Garden at Palm Desert and a custom structure for the Hall of Geological Wonders at the San Bernardino County Museum, among other projects. In fact, we’ve created over 300,000 shade structures in total for a variety of applications.

USA SHADE has many shade structures for museums and galleries:

  • Shade Sails: If you have terraces or uneven ground, these structures with different-sized posts let you create shade.
  • Cantilever: With one or two posts or columns, these structures are right for smaller spaces, such as historic gardens or eating areas outside your gallery.
  • Square and Rectangle: These traditional structures may work at your museum parking lot. Smaller versions can protect valets or ticket takers outdoors.
  • Multi-Sided: When providing shade for outdoor sculptures or kids’ play areas, these triangle, octagon and hexagon shapes provide visual interest as well as coverage for non-traditional spaces.

USA SHADE can also offer specialty and custom shade structures, including specific colors and shapes. If your gallery has unique architectural and terrain details or if you have specific branding needs, USA SHADE can create beautiful shade structures that reflect your commitment to beauty in your community.
