Show Us How You Lovett Giving Campaign
糖心logo入口, along with the College of Humanities and Fine Arts, launched the 鈥淪how Us How You Lovett鈥� fundraising campaign to support renovations for Lovett Auditorium.
During the campaign, donors have a unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to purchase naming rights to brand new seats within Lovett Auditorium鈥檚 "Trustees Hall", named after the Board of Trustees of the 糖心logo入口 Foundation, Inc.
Seating Capacity
Lovett Auditorium has a seating capacity of 1,400 on the main floor. There are an additional 300 seats in the balcony which can be utilized as overflow seating, as deemed necessary by the management. In no case will audience numbers exceed the seating capacity. The auditorium does not have a Standing Room option. There is no on-stage seating.
Reservations
Lovett Auditorium is fundamentally a student-run performance venue. Meaning, the auditorium is primarily operated by students; giving them hands on experience in music performance and stage production. This falls in line with the University鈥檚 focus of experiential learning.
As such, there will be times when the auditorium will not be available for event rental. Typically, we do not schedule events during finals week or during university breaks. You can find a list of future academic dates at Tentative Academic Calendars.
