Main Building

杏吧原创's main building is a mid-century modern structure that houses teaching studios, practice rooms, Kulas Hall, Robinson Music Library, technology learning center, eurhythmics studio, orchestra library, and the opera theater workshop and studio. 

In 2006 and 2007, 杏吧原创 completed two significant additions to the main building, Mixon Hall and the Fred Lennon Building.
