Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County

Miami, Florida | 500,000 square feet


Michelle served as a Team Member during the Construction Administration Phase of The Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts of Miami-Dade County with Pelli Clarke Pelli Architects. This facility is the premier performing arts center in Florida and the second largest in the United States, after Lincoln Center. The Arsht Center consists of two main buildings — the Sanford and Dolores Ziff Ballet Opera House and the John S. and James L. Knight Concert Hall — connected by an outdoor plaza. The Arsht Center is home to the Miami Ballet and the Florida Grand Opera and is host to guest resident orchestras and traveling productions. In addition to its 2,480-seat main stage, the Ziff Ballet Opera House includes a 200-seat studio theater for smaller productions. In the main house, a dramatic, 12-meter (40-foot) convex disc, covered with sound-reflective bumps, hangs from the ceiling. Suspended over the stage of the 2,200-seat Knight Concert Hall is a spiraling adjustable acoustic canopy. Rings of custom light fixtures accent this flowing form.
