Weitz Center for Creativity
Carleton College, Northfield, Minnesota

The new facility houses the Carleton comprehensive program in the arts. It includes drawing studios, a black box theater, 250-seat cinema theater, video production studios, an audio recording suite, the student radio station, dance studios, interactive classrooms, an idea lab and the Perlman Teaching Museum addition. The project achieved a LEED-Gold Certification.
