• The MarAbel B. Frohnmayer Music Building expansion completed in 2008 added much-needed space for practice, teaching, and performance in the School of Music and Dance. The expansion added 29,000 square feet to the existing building, increasing its total size by about 50 percent. Features in the remodeled facility include new practice and rehearsal spaces, new classrooms and teaching studios. The remodeled building was named for the mother of UO President Emeritus Dave Frohnmayer, MarAbel B. Frohnmayer, a 1931 UO music graduate and longtime arts supporter.
