Noble Family Performing Arts Center

While PARISHarts operates across many facilities – Jonnson Gallery, Black Box Theater, Gene E. Phillips Activity Center and more – Parish recently opened the doors of the new Noble Family Performing Arts Center which is now home of PARISHarts. The 55,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility, designed by BOKA Powell, is intended to elevate the arts at Parish and provide a stage for campus events and milestones, bringing our School together like never before.

Features of the Noble:
• Eller Hall/Auditorium with a permanent, proscenium stage and flexible seating for 600 people. Alternate configurations will provide space for a seated dinner or reception.
• Professional-Grade Technical Features, including optimized acoustics, a control room with the latest light and sound equipment, a scene shop and storage.
• Backstage spaces, including Dressing Rooms and a Tailoring Studio.
• A new Black Box Theater, DB2, for hosting intimate performances for smaller audiences – seating for 100 people.
• Two dedicated Dance Studios, Rogers & 6980 Studio, equipped to enhance practice and performance.
• Fleeger Film Room, with seating for 50, is a space for various community groups to meet and collaborate, whether it’s teaching from a film, learning from past performances, viewing a special presentation or so much more.
• A Lobby to welcome guests from both exterior and interior entrances to the Center.
• Newly-relocated Jonsson Gallery to display students’ and visiting artists’ visual art works.
• PARISHarts Alumni Wall featuring Parish graduates who have gone on to collegiate or professional endeavors in an arts field.
