The Allen Center for the Creative Arts and Technology
The Allen Center for the Creative Arts and Technology elevates the creative process by bringing together computer science and the visual and performing arts. With 50,000 square feet dedicated to imagination and creativity, our students have unique, cutting-edge opportunities to learn and create.
The 550-seat auditorium and 100-seat black box theater spotlights Hackley’s student actors, artists, musicians and technicians, and serves as a shared space across disciplines. Instructional spaces, rehearsal and practice rooms, scene shops, dressing rooms and control rooms foster creativity in its many forms and elevate the visual and performing arts at Hackley. The Makerspace, studios and flexible computer science classrooms create a learning environment for superior computer science instruction across disciplines.
Construction of the Allen Center for the Creative Arts and Technology is being funded thanks to the generosity of the Hackley community through the Beyond Boundaries Campaign. For more information, please contact John Gannon, Director of Advancement, at (914) 366-2654 or jgannon@hackleyschool.org.
