Crews are nearing the halfway point on construction of the Department of Theatre, Film, and Media Arts. They are working on mechanical, electrical and plumbing lines and installing drywall, windows, exterior panels, framing, and the roof. Next door, the School of Music is currently moving into the completed Timashev Family Music Building. Classes and programming will be available by Autumn 2022.
