Spreckels Performing Arts Center

Location: Rohnert Park, CA
Architects: Roland Miller Associates

Included in the City's master plan in the late 1970s, the Performing Arts Center joined the Sports Center and Community Center as components of the Rohnert Park Community Campus when construction of this $10 million model facility was completed in 1990. The Center totals 41,000 square feet and houses two theaters designed and built exclusively for dance, music and theatrical performances. The Nellie W. Codding Theater seats 550 patrons while the innovative Bette Condiotti Experimental Theater seats up to 125 patrons.

This innovative cultural arts facility is outfitted with television studio-quality stage lighting/dimming and rigging systems; a beautifully designed audience chamber with sophisticated sound amplification, reflecting and recording systems; custom-designed, architecturally-integrated audience chamber and lobby lighting systems; a second television studio-quality stage lighting/dimming system in the rehearsal area; fully outfitted professional dressing/makeup facilities, scenery shop, administrative offices and all related support facilities. O'Mahony & Myer provided the electrical engineering and Peters & Myer, the lighting design studio of O'Mahony & Myer, provided lighting design for all public areas of the Center, including the theater and stage lighting. O'Mahony & Myer also designed the lighting controls for both theaters.
