The Center for the Performing Arts and Art Building at Miami University
The Center for the Performing Arts building was designed to house three major components of Fine Arts academics of Miami University: the Miami University Theater, the theater department, and the music department. Originally the programs were distributed between Fisher Hall and Hall Auditorium, and were moved to the Center for the Performing Arts after its construction.
In 1984 funds were approved for a new Art and Art Education building to form a quad with the Center for the Performing Arts, amounting to approximately 6.8 million. The governor at the time, Richard Celeste, signed these grants for the building as well as the expansion and improvement of other halls on campus, including Williams Hall, Gaskill Hall, and Robertson Hall. Originally these funds had been frozen. 3.7 million was put forth by legislation to compensate for the architectural fees, the construction, and the equipment, and the building itself is worth 3.7 million. One of only two schools in the state of Ohio to be selected, the building was given the distinction of outstanding design in the “American School and University Magazine.”
==People==
The chairman of the music department at the time, Dr. Everett F. Nelson, had quite a few good things to say about the Center for the Performing Arts and how it impacted their department. “Quite aside from the functional aspects of the building and its attractive facilities, we now have a sense of being together as a department. Not long ago, the music department’s activities were scattered – Hall Auditorium, Hepburn Hall, Harrison Hall, McGuffey Hall, and Irvin Halls.” Theater director Dr. Donald L. Rosenburg was in accordance. “Also, a valuable exchange of ideas has developed between our department and the drama department. This is an unlooked-for spinoff and one that is proving fruitful.” …….”The interaction of the music and theater departments is mutually beneficial. Both programs are booming. In theater, we’re playing to 90 percent capacity, and students comprise 78 to 80 percent of that audience.” Donations were contributed toward the Center for the Performing Arts by Sidney W. Souers, who at the time also served as head of the Central Intelligence Agency, or the CIA.
The architects of the Art Building, Steed-Hammond-Paul Architects of Hamilton, got the bidding for the design. Several other bidders got commissions for the building as well. The bidders for the project were the companies that provided the services to the building construction such as heating, electric, fire protection, and airflow. These companies were Monarch Construction Co ($2,153,900), Studebacker Electric Co ($373,384), J.A. Croson Crew ($185,000), Fred B. DeBra Co. ($459,450), Kahoe Air Balancing Co. ($6,300), and General Firematic Sprinkler Co. ($43,400). The construction window at the time was predicted to last between 12 and 14 months, with groundbreaking beginning in late fall or early spring. Richard Celeste, the governor who originally signed the monetary funding for the art building, participated actively in the groundbreaking for the new art building.
