Dartmouth College is renovating arts center

June 23, 2022
The $88 million expansion and renovation of the Hopkins Center for the Arts will provide about 15,000 square feet of new space.

Dartmouth College's Hopkins Center for the Arts building is undergoing an $88 million expansion and renovation on the Hanover, N.H., campus. 

The expansion will add about 15,000 square feet of space . About 55,000 square feet of existing space will be transformed, the college says in a news release. 

The project will make the facility more open and flexible and will add updated performance and rehearsal spaces. 

It will also enhance audience engagement by substantially improving accessibility and technological capabilities, and by establishing new spaces to gather while merging indoor spaces and a new outdoor plaza landscape.

The building's Top of the Hop, the lobby outside the Moore Theater, and Spaulding Auditorium will be renovated. 

The money to carry out the improvements will come from fundraising.

Construction is scheduled to begin in late 2022; the new Hop will open in 2025.

Snøhetta is the architect.
