The Center kicked off the Alaska Center’s 15th Anniversary Celebration in October, 2003 with the Grand Opening of Elvera Voth Hall, a 1,800 square-foot performance and rehearsal space located on the Center’s second level. Voth Hall is a supremely flexible space perfect for a variety of uses, including rehearsals of all kinds, black box theatre, recitals, lectures, teleconferencing, public meetings, fundraising and other special events.

The Center’s newest space boasts a sprung floor and state-of-the-art acoustic panels that swing out from two walls. Installed above Voth Hall’s entrance is an exquisite metal and neon sculpture entitled Nature’s Illumination, created by Girdwood, Alaska artists, Joy and Drew Motsinger. The artwork was included in the hall’s construction through the Municipality of Anchorage’s 1% for Art Program. For technical information about Voth Hall, contact the Alaska Center’s Production Department, 263-2900.

Elvera Voth was a faculty member at UAA and at the Anchorage Community College. She became the third director of the Anchorage Community Chorus and founded the Alaska Chamber Singers in 1986. She moved to Kansas in 1994 and in 1996 established the East Hill Singers, a choir comprised of community member and of inmates from the East Unit of the Lansing Correctional Facility.
