Project Description

“In 2017, UNR broke ground on a state-of-the-art facility designed by DLR Group that could respond to rising student enrollment, growing interest in the arts, and provide much needed space for UNR’s new and expanded arts programs. In February 2019, the 42,500-SF University Arts Building officially opened its doors. Positioned in a central location on campus, the new building serves as a home to world-class performances and major exhibitions the entire community can enjoy. Thanks to strong collaboration between designers and university stakeholders, the resulting facility is one that will further the university’s connection to the Reno community, elevate the role of the arts in the region, and positively affect the local economy.”
