The University of Iowa is in the beginning stages of planning for the Department of Dance to vacate aging Halsey Hall and relocate to the Performing Arts Annex, the renamed former art museum that sits among other arts buildings on the west side of the Iowa River.
The move—proposed as part of the university’s next 10 years of facilities projects—will enable the university to initiate a separate collection of facilities projects that directly support the Strategic Plan 2022-2027 priorities, including promoting holistic well-being and success, enhancing excellence in teaching and learning, and providing a welcoming and inclusive environment.
The university’s ability to move forward on the Performing Arts Annex renovation was made possible by a recent change in how P3 money will be distributed for FY2024.
