A Vibrant Center for the Arts

In September 2006,
Segerstrom Center for the Arts inaugurated its beautiful new 2,000-seat Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall, 500-seat multi-use Samueli Theater and an education center. These venues and resources, along with the 3,000-seat Segerstrom Hall and 300-seat Founders Hall, South Coast Repertory and, eventually, the Orange County Arts Museum, are known as the Segerstrom Center for the Arts.  Segerstrom Center is now poised to meet the needs of this prosperous and growing region of the country and will continue to offer the world’s greatest artists and performing arts companies and provide an ideal home to the region’s important arts organizations.

“Building on the Vision” is Segerstrom Center’s capital campaign that is funding the $240 million expansion project. The magnificent new structure has been designed by internationally respected architect Cesar Pelli with one of the world’s foremost acousticians, Russell Johnson of ARTEC. The plaza is the unifying vision of Peter Walker & Partners and incorporates a major work of public art commissioned by the renowned Richard Serra called Connector.
