Named for the founding director of the Arts Council of Princeton, the Anne Reeves Studio is primarily for our Artist-in-Residence program, but we are pleased to offer this space for rent when it is available. This room houses a large, round window that frames a picturesque view of downtown Princeton. Large wooden tables in the center of the room make it perfect for a conference, workshop, or other learning experience, but can also be cleared for a blank space as needed. The walls of this room are also used as part of our extended exhibition space. Painting Studio Second Floor The Painting Studio is located between the Anne Reeves Studio and the Solley Theater, adjacent to the Theater Lobby. This space can be used for arts workshops or sittings. For events that are catered, this room is ideal for food staging and prep with a sink and ample room for tables. Double doors slide open for easy access to the Anne Reeves Studio. Robert L. Solley Theater Second Floor The Solley Theater offers state-of-the-art technology, sound, and lighting in a near-black box setting. Modular staging and seating allows many configurations in this venue. Six 12' windows with blackout drapes, a dropdown full-size movie screen, professional quality speakers, a performer's "green room," technical support, and a Steinway grand piano are also available for use in this space. Theater Lobby Second Floor The Theater Lobby is airy, with two walls of windows overlooking the sculpture garden on the Michael Graves Terrace, and is the home of the Arts Council's Video Lounge, showing audio and visual works of established and emerging regional artists. This space is used when the entire second floor is contracted for an event. The Theater Lobby can also be used for a bar or refreshment station or as a registration location for your event. Second Floor Suite Second Floor The Second Floor Suite (Solley Theater, Theater Lobby, Painting Studio, Anne Reeves Studio, and the Communiveristy Room) can be rented for large functions such as fundraisers, bar and bat mitzvahs, and receptions.

The Didi and Jim Burke Studio is a multi-use art space for children's classes and adult classes using a variety of materials. This space is ideal for team building art experiences and can be used as a breakout space in conjunction with other rooms. Michael Graves Terrace The courtyard area on the Witherspoon Street side of the Paul Robeson Center for the Arts was generously donated by Judith and William Scheide and named for Michael Graves, the Princeton architect who donated his design for the renovation and expansion of the building. Sculpture on the terrace will be changed every four to six months. This is a delightful space for brown bag lunches or breakout space for a seminar. For larger events, the terrace can be used as gracious outdoor space. Digital Arts Studio Lower Level
