Chandler Center for the Arts
Location: Scottsdale, AZ
Owner: Chandler Unified School District and City of Chandler
Size: 61,000 SF
Check out Arizona Highways magazine's interview with SPS+ Architects founder Wendell Rossman about our innovative design for the Chandler Center for the Arts.
The Chandler Center for the Arts represents a culmination of the unique cooperative efforts between the Chandler Unified School District and the City of Chandler. The central feature of the Center, designed by SPS Architects, is the turntable divisible auditorium which utilizes two large rotating platforms, 82 feet and 69 feet in diameter.
These subdivide the large hall into a 350-seat intimate theater, a 250-seat recital hall and a 1,000-seat legitimate theater, each of which can be used at the same time and independently of any of the other two areas. The hallmark of the complex is its superb acoustics.
