Is it time for a
Fremont Performing
Arts Center?
We think it’s way past time…
A concept, an idea, a dream
This page is dedicated to the concept of bringing a Center for the Arts to fruition. There have been many projects that have brought this close to happening but none have made it through to the end, obviously. Everything included in these pages are concepts, ideas, plans and links that show that there is indeed interest.
It all started when…
The City of Fremont was incorporated 1956 bringing together the five historic districts of: Centerville, Irvington, Niles, Mission San Jose and Warm Springs. Since that time there have been many discussion and movements to garner support for a performing arts center. This is just another attempt to create a central place where Fremontians can come together to enjoy the performing arts, events, speakers and more.
Is this a new concept?
Is this a new idea?
No, it is not. In fact here is a set of plans that were developed as recent as the mid 1990’s. The Fremont Cultural Arts Council secured BOORA Architect Planning/Interior Design (now Bora Architects) render plans for a performing arts center. You may have seen their work elsewhere:
Smith Center at Ohlone College
Lesher Center in Walnut Creek
Mondavi Center at UC Davis
