Rockefeller Arts Center Addition

The dark grey areas are existing buildings, with Rockefeller Arts Center on the right. The light grey shaded areas around the perimeter of the arts center indicate the proposed addition. Note the shaded area connecting to Mason Hall, which is the portion of the building revealed on the left.

Construction starts: Summer 2012
Project Completion: TBA

The Michael C. Rockefeller Arts Center is slated for expansion and is currently in the programming phase, with plans to be finalized by December 2011. Deborah Berke and Partners Architects are in the middle of a study to determine the ideal use of the expansion and thus set the stage for the architectural design and, ultimately, construction.

In addition to housing three performance venues and administrative offices for the center, the 120,000 square-foot complex houses SUNY Fredonia's prestigious academic programs in Visual Arts and New Media, and Theatre and Dance.

The proposed addition will transform the 40 year-old center, provide for new programs, including dance studios, and connect the complex to Mason Hall, the home of SUNY Fredonia's renowned School of Music.
