Celebrating an exciting new chapter for the Arts at University of Missouri-Saint Louis this week. The culmination and celebration of a seven-year design and construction process! Such a joy to share with family, friends, and colleagues.
A special thank you to Kristin Sobolik, Steven J. Berberich, Christopher S., Pamela Stuerke, Brian Williams, Joanna Mendoza, Michael Behle, Michael V. Smith, Maureen Quigley, Matt Henry, Glen Anderson, Jeffrey Sippel, Jodi Kolpakov, John McGrosso, Kurt Baldwin, Corinne Stillwell, Arianna String Quartet, Susan Elliott and Lisa Geddes Capone for your dedication, leadership, and kind words.
Through a deliberate and acoustically attuned renovation, the former Arts & Administration Building at the University of Missouri-Saint Louis is transformed from an under-utilized support facility into a vibrant, light-filled home for the Departments of Music and Art+Design. Nestled beside the Touhill Performing Arts Center – and positioned between airport flight path and light-rail hum – the reimagined Creative Arts Building embraces its context and constraints, leveraging limitation into creative opportunity.
