Prescott Park Arts Festival

Portsmouth, New Hampshire, USA
JSA Inc.

Collaborating with the client and design team, we reimagined this popular pavilion to create a more flexible, versatile, and audience-friendly attraction. We repositioned the stage to improve the acoustic quality of the live music, dramatic works, and films that the public park regularly hosts.

60-80
events per year in park
150,000
annual visitor count in park

The addition of a canopy over the stage allows for fewer weather cancellations and helps sound containment. New backstage support spaces were also designed and positioned specifically for sound containment and include dressing and green rooms. With infrastructure improvements and new lighting and theatre equipment, the scheme made the park better-equipped to stage a wider variety of programming.
