ST. PAUL, Minn. — Private liberal arts university Macalester College approved a $40 million plan to renovate and expand its Janet Wallace Fine Arts Center. Earlier this week, Macalester’s board of trustees signed off on the project, which is expected to begin in January of next year and wrap up in July 2012.

Funded largely by private donations, the expansion will build new art history classes, an art gallery, commons areas, faculty offices, and new ensemble rehearsal rooms onto the fine arts center.
