Cypress College Fine Arts

The Cypress College Fine Arts renovation project entails a comprehensive overhaul of the existing 1969, 3-story (+mezzanine), 66,765-square-foot building. The renovated building will feature state-of-the-art amenities, including lighting, lighting controls, theater lighting, sound recording rooms, photography labs, ceramic labs, theater arts classrooms, and a performance theater. Through this project, Cypress College Fine Arts aims to create a dynamic and conducive environment for artistic expression and education.

The primary objective is to modernize and enhance the facilities to accommodate various fine arts programs. This includes seismic upgrades to the concrete structure, installation of metal framing, exposed T-bar ceilings, and decorative paneling. Additionally, electrical upgrades such as rigid conduit, EMT, and MV switches will be implemented, along with the installation of a 1500kVA 4160V/480V transformer. The project also involves reworking existing MV intercepts, relocating duct banks, and installing new MV and LV switchgear. Furthermore, the addition of a 175KW generator and fire pump will enhance safety measures.
