Cincinnati School for Creative and Performing Arts
Fanning Howey provided initial programming services, as well as engineering and loose furnishings selection for the breakthrough project. The selection of loose furnishings involved close coordination with art teachers and Cincinnati Public Schools officials. This collaborative approach led to specialized furniture packages including easels, drafting tables and equipment for a sewing room and a pottery room. A highlight of the school is the 850-seat auditorium that connects K-12 students with professionals from the Cincinnati Music Hall and the Cincinnati Ballet.
