Facilities
Gorelick Family Theater
The renovated Gorelick Family Theater seats 400,
and provides a wonderful home for more than 70 play performances,
special events, and assemblies each year for students in all
three divisions. It also features state-of-the art sound and
lighting systems, a proscenium and stage, additional storage
for theater props and sets, additional seating, and new acoustical
treatments for the walls and ceiling. In addition, the building
holds two child-scaled classrooms for Lower School students, a small gallery, a dance room, and Lower School music rooms.
Upper School Fine Arts Center
In August 2004, the new Upper School Fine Arts Center opened its doors.
With its striking and inspirational design the building is a work of art in
itself. Its 45,730-square-foot design gives the fine arts and humanities programs
the space they need to further develop and improve their curriculum. The new facility
features four visual arts studios, a photography studio with two darkrooms equipped for
film and print development, and a ceramics/3-D studio. It offers a drama classroom/black box theater
with two catwalks, and a two-story dance studio with a sprung floor. The building also includes
a music suite with acoustically sound instrumental and choral classrooms, six individual practice
rooms, and four rooms for group/section rehearsals. Finally, it houses five humanities classrooms,
a computer graphics classroom, a student publication center, a multi-function seminar classroom, and
a student art gallery.
