Performing Arts Center - Planning for the Future - November 17, 2011 Update

 

Following the April 26, 2011, ceremonial groundbreaking, the design architects revisited campus on November 17th to share internal gallery views that accompany the previously shared external view. As the  January 2013 beginning of construction nears, we clearly have a gorgeous facility to look forward to.

Enjoy these new images with links below to previous updates and the chronology told through press releases. In addition, interior plans for the ground, second, and third levels are available as a pdf for download.
