Phase II of Karen Hille Phillips Center Restoration has begun
The Karen Hille Phillips Center for the Performing Arts is being fully restored thanks to a $10 million bequest from the university's most generous benefactress, Karen Hille Phillips, in addition to gifts from many other donors. Renovations for the building began in summer 2010 and half of them have already been completed. Click here to see a project overview for the Karen Hille Phillips Center Renovation.

What has been done so far:
- Rose window rebuilt, cleaned and reinstalled
- Exterior completely updated (cleaned bricks, new copper roof)
- New Studio Theater
- New Scene Shop
Both the Studio Theater and the Scene Shop are currently in use. The Scene Shop is now located on the main floor, which allows for safer and faster set design.
