Cunningham Theatre Center

Cunningham Theatre Center

Dates: Built in 1961 and dedicated as Cunningham Fine Arts Building on October 29, 1961. After a thorough remodeling, in fall 2009, the building was rededicated as the Cunningham Theatre Center. The Cunningham Theatre Center houses the Rupert T. Barber Theatre as the performance centerpiece of the building.

Quote: The center is truly unique and the most complete facility of
its kind among liberal arts colleges for men in the southeast and perhaps in
the nation. We are convinced that this fine arts center will mean much in the
development of art, music, and drama not only in Davidson but in the entire
area. “Cunningham Dedicates Fine Arts Center Thursday.” Davidsonian.
