Program: The 33,840-square-foot community center houses a 420-seat performance hall, a 500-seat banquet hall, a catering kitchen, and administrative offices. 

Design Concept and solution: CO Architects were faced with the challenge of creating a simple and affordable performance and banquet hall that could flexibly cater to diverse cultural and civic functions. Cladding differentiates the performance and banquet volumes; the banquet hall is clad in yellow Minnesota Kasota stone, and the performance volume in glass and burnished concrete masonry units. Travertine marble floors, glass railings, and anigre wood accents define the minimal interior.
