Tempe Center for the Arts (TCA) is a publicly owned performing and visual arts middle in Tempe, Arizona. It opened in September 2007 and houses a 600-seat proscenium theater, a 200-seat studio theater and a three,500-square-human foot gallery. Its Lakeside Room seats 200 and overlooks Tempe Town Lake, with views of the Papago Buttes and Camelback Mountain.

Architecture [edit]

The building was designed past Barton Myers Assembly of Los Angeles and Architekton of Tempe.[2] [iii] A citizens group, formed in 1998, spearheaded a election initiative to create an arts heart. The resulting increase in the sales tax of 0.i% was used to fund seed coin for the direction, design, and construction of the facility.

At the archway, environmental designer Ned Kahn uses 8,000 embedded marbles and tiny mirrors to create a shimmery sunlit result at the Center'south marquee. He echoes this shimmering effect on the w wall of the Lakeside room where an array of mirrors captures and digitizes the bachelor low-cal reflecting off the Center'south negative edge pool.[1]

Unlike about theaters, this anteroom is open to the public without a ticket and becomes a popular gathering place that brings art and community together while enhancing the Tempe landscape, promoting positive quality of life issues related to sustainability, recreation, and culture.[1]

A direction firm (Kitchell CEM) was selected by the city government to oversee a three-phase design competition, leading to the selection of the design team in 2000. Following public input, the pattern was completed in 2003. Construction began in Apr 2004 and took 40 months. The Middle was completed in August 2007, with a grand opening on September 9, 2007.

The Center features a roof made of complex geometric folded plates. The roof is visible from the surrounding freeways and the man-made Tempe Town Lake, which occupies the natural watercourse of the Salt River, immediately side by side to the site. It is also visible by many airplanes landing at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Drome, two miles west of the edifice.

Five public fine art pieces were included in the design:

  • Entry Marquee[four] – Ned Kahn
  • Fireplace[five]– trueNorth - Mayme Kratz and Mark Ryan
  • Fountain Reflections[6] – Ned Kahn
  • Lobby Rug[7] – Ramona Saskiestewa
  • Aurora[eight] - Brower Hatcher

The Eye includes the Gallery at TCA, a visual arts gallery featuring free exhibits of ii- and three-dimensional artwork by local and internationally recognized artists.
