Frisco ISD is less than a year away from opening its new Visual and Performing Arts Center—a project that is set to expand student opportunities within the district.
About the project: The approximately 65,000-square-foot facility will house a large performance hall with about 1,150 seats, including upper-level balcony seating and box seating. The $54.9 million center, approved by voters in a 2018 bond program, will also feature a 2,000-square-foot gallery space designed to showcase rotating work from FISD students and is intended to provide students with professional-level exhibition opportunities, officials said.
Quote of note: “From the time of its inception, this Visual and Performing Arts Center was intended to be a home for our fine arts programs,” said Preston Hazzard, FISD managing director of fine arts.
