"The Katzen Arts Center, occupying a prominent site on Massachusetts Avenue at Ward Circle, was designed as an interdisciplinary home for programs in the visual arts, music, theater, dance, art history, and arts management. The building stretches along a 600-foot interior street that parallels Massachusetts Avenue and offers access to a 30,000-square-foot museum as well as three performance venues, classrooms, studios, and offices for faculty members. A 6,000-square-foot sculpture garden and a 550-space parking garage complete the complex. " — Chronicle of Higher Education
