Auburn University, The Jay and Susie Gogue Performing Arts Center
Auburn, Alabama, USA
Robert Benson Photography
For decades, the university had dreamed of building an arts center to create a state-of-the-art student learning and performance environment as well as to bring touring musicals, opera, dance, orchestra and symphony performances to Auburn. We helped the university crystallize this vision so it could be brought to life, designing a multipurpose hall with adjustable acoustics and an orchestra shell to create a customizable environment for any performance type and a 3,500-capacity outdoor amphitheatre for more informal music events.
