a fine arts space at college of the holy cross features a piano in front of stained glass windows

Our Work > Project

College of the Holy Cross Brooks Concert Hall/Arts Studio

Key Features

The renovations to Brooks Concert Hall, used by the Music Department for concerts and recitals, greatly improved acoustics and created a more intimate seating arrangement
The 4,500 square foot renovation includes new horseshoe shaped seating for 180, new risers and lighting grid
Brooks Hall is located in the original 1843 chapel, Fenwick Hall, where original features still exist. The design intentionally contrasts the new design from the original
Part of an ambitious summer construction project, the Millard Arts Department renovation and additions includes a large skylight studio and individual independent study studio spaces totaling 4,500 square feet
The expansion addresses program needs that surfaced in a previous study of the college’s performing and fine arts facilities
