Description: |
Construction work is underway on an addition to Lilly Hall as viewed from the east side of the building. The extra space included two dance studios, a percussion room, an electronic music lab, a theater, choral rooms, four rehearsal rooms, and offices for Butler University based arts organizations including the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir, the Indianapolis Childrens Choir, Dance Kaleidoscope, the American Pianist Association, and the Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra. These organizations helped to fund the addition in exchange for the use of space in Lilly Hall. In fact, the Indianapolis Childrens Choir raised $1 million towards the building costs and other funds came from the Lilly Endowment for the Arts. The additional space opened in 2003. To the right of the construction site a portion of Clowes Memorial Hall is visible, while cars are parked in a parking next to the building. The parking lot is now the location of the Schrott Center for the Arts. |
