Harbor Hall Renovations Bring Upgraded Facilities and Updated Technology to the Graphic Arts Program
The Graphic Arts Program received a generous $1,000,000 gift from Josephine Hall that has allowed them to provide major renovations to Harbor Hall at the 国产短视频St. Petersburg Campus. The funding and construction began in 2018 with the installation of a 17-station computer lab and the remainder of the project will be completed by the start of the fall semester.

The current renovations took place starting December 2020 and are nearing completion. These installations include innovative technology in all studio classrooms, new flooring and lighting, updated gallery space, magnetic walls for critique, and a combination of HBR 143 and 144 into one large studio classroom. All of which are aimed to enhance education, engagement, and creativity amongst students.
