AT A GLANCE The constructed environment emerges from the landscape with the distinctive, angular design of the Visual Arts Pavilion, under construction at the east entrance to the ArtsPark. The final phase of the ArtsPark, a Performing Arts Pavilion awaiting funding, will also be in this area and include a state-of-the-art amphitheatre.

A CLOSER LOOK The Visual Arts Pavilion is home to studios where professional artists will create their art, places for people to watch and learn how art is created, and classes through which people can participate by creating their own art. Studios are dedicated to metalworking and glass making with a third studio available for creating two-dimensional and three-dimensional fine art. The Visual Arts Pavilion is scheduled for completion in late 2007. The Performing Arts Pavilion will replace the former bandstands and amphitheaters that have long been a part of Young Circle. There will also be formal exhibition spaces in the Pavilion and a small studio theatre capable of seating between 300 and 350 people in a variety of configurations. The state-of-the-art amphitheater will open to the park side of the pavilion, accommodating large performances and 500  people in premium outdoor theatre seats under a cantilevered roof along with a terraced lawn to accommodate another 1,500. Groundbreaking for construction has not been determined. Until the new Pavilion is constructed, a temporary stage will sit on the footprint of the future amphitheater.
