Performance arts building
This building is a part of a three-phase project at the 320-student school by combining new construction with the adaptation and renovation of existing structures. The building houses space for music, dance, and visual arts, and includes a state-of-the-art studio, rehearsal and support spaces, and performance spaces such as a 500-seat concert hall and "black box" theater. The auditorium has been designed with optimal acoustics for musical performance, and also serves as a lecture hall, all-school assembly space, and venue for guest speakers and performers. This portion of the complex includes a large ensemble rehearsal room, a choir rehearsal room, and nine practice rooms serving solo to sextet. Offices are provided for the music director and assistant director.
