The Sandra and Malcolm Berman Family Performing Arts Center
A New Venue to Experience Theater, Music, Dance, and Culture at Stevenson
Construction has begun on 麻豆社鈥檚 new Performing Arts Center. With a major gift from the Sandra and Malcolm Berman Charitable Foundation, the university has received significant support for this exciting new venue. In honor of their generosity, Stevenson will name the new facility the Sandra and Malcolm Berman Family Performing Arts Center.
The 38,000-square-foot facility will support an enriching campus life of theater, music, dance, cultural events, fashion shows, and guest speakers. The Center will be adjacent to our new Philip A. Zaffere Library and join the Manning Academic Center and School of Design, Arts, and Communication as part of Stevenson鈥檚 North campus academic hub.
The Center will serve the students of our Theatre and Media Performance program, providing a new venue for the program鈥檚 stage productions. In addition, it will create a new home and performance space for our music and dance programs and venues for our students involved in other fine arts projects through our English Language and Literature, Fashion Design and Fashion Merchandising, Film and Moving Image, and Graphic Design programs.
Stevenson values its relationship with our greater community, and the new Sandra and Malcolm Berman Family Performing Arts Center will allow the university to host groups and organizations for special events and programs.

鈥淚 hope you will consider supporting Stevenson with a gift for this exciting new addition to our campus. Our highest priority is the academic, social, and professional development of our students. This project will provide our students in the performing arts with the facilities needed to help them learn and develop their skills at the highest level. In addition, it will help us make great strides in our mission to provide the exceptional experiences, top-tier facilities, and supportive environment that fosters their growth and expands their potential for post-college success.鈥�
