A major expansion is in the works for Dartmouth College’s Hopkins Center for the Arts, reports the Associated Press.
According to the report, the school plans to create three new recital halls, upgrade the Center’s technology to share and broadcast Dartmouth-originated works worldwide, as well as other improvements. So far, Dartmouth has reached one-third of its $75 million fundraising goal for the project.
On Wednesday, it was announced that the Snohetta architectural firm will be leading the expansion and redesign.
The redesign of Dartmouth’s “The Hop”, an arts facility opened in 1962, marks a milestone in the school’s over $180 million investment into its art district. This move follows in the footsteps of the investment into the Black Family Visual Arts Center and the Hood Museum of Art’s redesign and expansion.
