Closure of the 46th Street and Sunset Avenue entrance to campus due to the construction of an addition of Lilly Hall

Description: The 46th Street and Sunset Avenue entrance to campus is closed due to construction work on an addition to Lilly Hall. An approximately 47,500 square-foot addition was added to the building, which 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 a small portion of Clowes Memorial Hall is visible.
