Performing Arts Center Growth Information Donna and Marvin Schwartz Center for Performing Arts Emory broke ground on the Donna and Marvin Schwartz Center for Performing Arts on Thursday, Oct. 19 with a festive ceremony including jugglers, actors and performing artists.
Recent construction includes clearing debris from the area and adding in soil.
Emory has adopted an arts village concept for its performing arts, clustering a number of venues in the southeast quadrant of campus instead of one all-encompassing facility. By bringing these activities together under one roof, the arts center will create a vibrant place for students and faculty that will transform the arts at Emory. Many of Emory's students and faculty are involved in the performing arts, both as an academic pursuit and extra-curricular activity. The project is scheduled to be completed in May 2002.
