The new Wolfe Center for the Arts at Bowling Green State University will provide a space on campus where the arts can flourish and robust collaborations between them can take root.

The building itself will offer an environment conducive to creativity and synergistic partnerships. In addition to being a place for students and faculty to learn and work on theatrical, dance, musical, film and digital arts productions, the center will offer the community an exceptional venue in which to see a wide range of performances.

Designed by the international architectural firm Snøhetta, based in Oslo, Norway, construction on the center will begin in 2009 and be completed in 2011.
