SOUTH BEND â The cityâs Venues Parks & Arts department took its first public step this week toward a multi-year fundraising campaign and renovation project for the Morris Performing Arts Center, which turns 100 in 2022. The work, department director Aaron Perri said, likely will involve three categories: safety and mechanicals, such as rigging points and the HVAC system; amenities that make it attractive for promoters to book large shows there; and aesthetics to enhance the audienceâs experience. On Friday, representatives from RATIO, an international design company based in Indianapolis, will tour the Morris and begin to make recommendations for what work the city should prioritize.
