Lang Performing Arts Center, Swarthmore College

Lang Performing Arts Center, Swarthmore College The awesomest place on earth! At least on campus (if you are a student worker...).

The opening of the Lang Performing Arts Center in 1991 marked the culmination of a longstanding desire to integrate the arts into the curriculum and provide improved facilities for them. Eugene Lang '38 was a major figure in the creation of the Center and his gifts, and those of Parker ('55) and Julie Lange Hall '55 and others, enabled the completion of the project. Designed by Dagit-Saylor Archi

tects, the building features at its heart the 7,000-square-foot Pearson-Hall Theatre, designed by George Izenour. Some special features of this theater include a 75-ton motorized wall that can divide the space into two independently functioning rooms, the East Coast's largest tension lighting grid, and a motorized turntable system that allows for a full thrust-stage configuration. The Performing Arts Center is a hub of campus activity, frequently hosting simultaneously rehearsals, gallery installations, readings, film screenings, classes, and performances.

With a deep melancholy I wish to share the departure of Allison Emmerich from the LPAC staff and Swarthmore College. This is greatly assuaged by my profound pride in announcing Allie will become the Program Director for Arts Education at Barnard College. Allie last day will be January 3, 2018. I know we will all miss her presence, which has been felt across campus. In order for us to say a proper goodbye, I invite anyone who is able, to join us on Jan 3rd, at 1pm in the LPAC lobby.
