History

Ground was broken for the center on June 21, 2010. It was built using a combination of new and existing construction. In 2012, Shultz Dining Hall, built in 1962, closed so that it could be used for the construction.

It is named for artist and donor Patricia Buckley Moss. The center officially opened on Oct. 28, 2013.
