Lehman Center for the Performing Arts Ribbon Cutting Ceremony



  The home of Music and Arts some call the Lincoln Center of the Bronx, the Lehman College Center for the Performing Arts has finished its $15.4 million dollar renovation. Thursday was the ribbion cutting ceremony that added over five thousand square feet of new space, and solved the problem of the center not being ADA accessible. 

Hundreds of people were on hand to see the new facade of the center, hear from those at Lehman College, and be able to tour the revamped Lehman College Center for the Performing Arts building.
While several elected officials were on hand, City Council members Andrew Cohen and Andy King provided New York City Funding. Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. was the only elected official to speak.
