Project Description

The MacEwan Allard Hall was designed to be a prominent building in the Oliver area of Edmonton and opened September 2017. The building totals approximately 25,000 gross square meters and houses all the arts and culture programs and also includes general multi-purpose instructional space.

For Allard Hall, the move from The Jasper Place community into the downtown core creates the opportunity to truly connect with the downtown arts community as a whole. The Hall includes a performance theatre, recital hall, gallery and blackbox theatre. The objective was for the centre to house all of the arts and communications within one building and to enhance the experience of the students with the proximity to central Edmonton.
