The Antinori Center for the Arts at Jesuit High School provides students with a dedicated space to explore and develop their creative talents. Built by Beck, the single-story facility features a 434-seat auditorium with a performance stage, band and orchestra classrooms, visual arts and ceramics studios, a Black Box Theatre, and a fully equipped scene shop.
The arts center features composite cladding, expansive glass curtain walls, and a membrane roof. Beck incorporated recessed openings for large stained-glass installations and coordinated their placement throughout construction. A large roll-up door and back-of-house access provide a clear path for moving stage sets and equipment.
Throughout construction, Beck hosted weekly jobsite tours for Jesuit High School board members and prospective donors. These tours gave stakeholders a firsthand look at the project’s progress and the school’s vision for the new arts center.
