ORU Makes Historic Investment in the Arts with New Peggy V. Helmerich Media Arts Center

Oral Roberts University (ORU) continued its campus expansion, celebrating the grand opening of the Peggy V. Helmerich Media Arts Center (MAC). With the state-of-the-art facility opening this Fall, it now serves as the new home for ORU's theatre, dance, music, and digital media departments. The new building is part of the University’s ongoing commitment to the arts and future artists. 

The MAC, located on the northwest side of ORU, is the fourth major addition to the expanding campus. The two-story, 74,000-square-foot building features leading-edge technologies, a 400-seat proscenium-style auditorium, a 130-seat music performance hall, and a 100-seat black box theater. These versatile performance spaces will also serve as classrooms, offering students hands-on learning experiences in professional environments.
