The plans to expand and update the Hearst are underway! We are currently in the quiet phase of fundraising for this amazing opportunity to expand our classrooms, performance hall, and gallery areas while providing essential updates to the Hearst facility. We will make official announcements to the public when we launch our public phase of the fundraising campaign. If you are interested in more information or would like to help our efforts, please email us! We welcome donations to this worthy project at any time through our partners at the Cedar Falls Community Foundation, visit our “Art Is Essential”
Hearst Master Plan:
A study of options for renovation, expansion, or new construction
What is the purpose of creating a Master Plan?
The Hearst Master Plan is designed to provide a conceptual framework to potentially update and expand the Hearst Center, along with providing vital information to plan a fundraising campaign around this project.
A Facility Master Plan is a guide of how space can be utilized based on the organization’s needs along with price estimates to implement a construction project, and not intended as final construction documents. This step in a potential future remodel/expansion project to support informed decisions regarding how to prioritize Hearst needs for the next 30 years, and what can reasonably be accomplished.
The Hearst site was evaluated and concepts were created to renovate/remodel the current facility, along with pricing an option to build a whole new facility on this site.
