The Doudna Fine Arts Center is nearing completion on the campus of Eastern Illinois University. It was designed by architect Antoine Predock, who designed other buildings I've seen in Minneapolis, Tacoma, and San Diego. More pictures of Doudna are available on Flickr. I am eager for it to be completed since I hope to attend several events there. For the last few several years, all events were held in an old gymnasium or a converted grocery store. The new facility will have a concert hall, recital halls, theatres, along with classrooms and offices. There is a lot of glass, copper, concrete, mirrors, and steel beams throughout the building.

Wow! Very interesting architecture. Maybe they'll even have a practice room where you can play the piano?
