3. UCLA NIMOY THEATER
Construction is moving ahead!
In 2018, CAP UCLA and the School of the Arts and Architecture acquired The Crest Theatre on Westwood Boulevard. A landmark venue dating back to depression-era 1940s, The Crest will be transformed into a new off-campus performing arts space that will be operated and managed by CAP UCLA. The venue will be named the UCLA Nimoy Theater in honor of artist, actor, director and philanthropist Leonard Nimoy.
The Nimoy is envisioned as a much-needed public platform for contemporary performance and a cultural gathering space where the potential of performing artists and audiences will evolve together.
Shawmut Design and Construction was awarded the renovation project and took over the building this week. The Nimoy is expected to open Fall 2022.
