Groundbreaking at Bard College Conservatory of Music

2011 NOV 01 – Groundbreaking was held this past weekend for The László Z. Bitó ’60 Conservatory Building at Bard College. Led by President Leon Botstein, students, faculty, staff, and our team celebrated the generous gift of Bard alumnus László Z. Bitó, class of 1960, and the start of construction. The new building will support the Conservatory’s dedication to providing top-level musical training in the context of a liberal arts education. The building is expected to open in January of 2013.
