The performing arts center will house a 1,000 seat theater. The tallest portion of the building will be approximately 70 feet tall and is located on the lowest elevation of the property to diminish its heights in relation to Founders Hall.

The project is located on University Circle between Founders Hall and Pauling Hall on the campus. The project parking on-site will be provided within the existing parking on the campus of Soka University of America.
