   Stops

   1. Ann and Steve Morgan Auditorium

      Built in 1926, the Ann and Steve Morgan Auditorium is a concert hall to showcase our talented students and guests of the university. Located in Founders Hall, the performance venue is where we host Sundays at the Morgan, our monthly showcase of music and musicians shaped by the College of Arts and Sciences’ Department of Music. Guest speakers and important university events are also held in the auditorium.

   2. Dailey Theater and Jane Dibbell Cabaret

      Built in 1974, Dailey Theatre is home to the theatre department. The 200-seat performance venue was built in a U-shape so that every seat is a good seat. Participation in theatre productions is not limited to theatre majors – anybody can audition! The Dailey Theatre has an easily transformable stage and seating arrangement, which allows for an array of production options. The theatre department puts on two major productions each year, and the venue is also used for staged readings, live music events, senior project productions, and more.

      The Jane Dibbell Cabaret theatre is a classroom and rehearsal space for the theatre department. This is also where your performance scholarship audition will take place if you're a theatre major.

   3. Harris Art Gallery

      The Harris Art Gallery opened in 1996 and is recognized as a distinctive space for the exhibition of contemporary art by professional and student artists. It's located on the first floor of the Landis Academic Center, across from the Wilson Library. Along with showcasing beautiful art, the gallery aims to inspire discussion in the community and higher thinking about the artwork.

   4. Arts and Communications Building

      The Arts and Communications Building is the home base for all arts and communications majors. The building features a Mac computer lab, lecture and conference style classrooms, and houses the office for Campus Times, our student newspaper, as well as studios for the campus radio station (107.9 LEO-FM) and the community news television station (LVTV-3). The loft-like upper floor hosts an expansive studio space for our art classes and the Tall Wall Gallery space, where students display their work.
