Playing many parts.
Bringing the light in so students can shine.
A place to do it all
This state-of-the-art performing arts center houses a 500-seat theater with the latest sound and lighting systems, scene shop, music and drama studios. The facility also includes a college counseling center, communications and technology lab, and student dining and gathering spaces. A two-story lobby space extends the entire length of the facility to the west, connecting the major program areas of the building and doubling as a student commons during the school day. This lobby provides abundant natural daylight and unrestricted views of the nearby Rocky Mountains from both levels.
