OSU - Stater - Spring 2024

Spring2024 25 PRAx’s BIG DEBUT New arts center opens. The finishing touches were being made to the Patricia Valian Reser Center for the Creative Arts, or PRAx, as this issue went to press. The new performance and teaching space at the corner of Southwest 15th Street and Washington boasts an exciting season ranging from a best-selling author to student ensembles to live virtual reality. In welcome news for parents, the center will also offer onsite child care for select performances. (See beav.es/ praxkids.) PRAx is named for alumna and volunteer leader Patricia Valian Reser, ’60, ’19 (Hon. Ph.D.) who has given $36 million for the arts to the OSU Foundation. —Scholle McFarland cULTURe PHOTO BY BLAKE BROWN
