Newark Arts High School

Newark, NJ
SSP Architects

The renovation of the Newark Arts High School brought the school district’s 1920s gem into the 21st century. The renovation of the house included new seats, acoustic drapery, a motorized front of house lighting position and restoration of the original paint treatment. The existing decorative lighting fixtures were restored, and additional house lighting was added. 

The stage received a complete update by Studio T+L, including new manual and motorized rigging, 200 dimmers, a new stage lighting inventory, stage lighting data distribution to every lighting position, new drapery, and a new wood floor.
