The construction of the IBCC will necessitate the demolition of the existing Sierra Nevada building. To avoid the need for swing space and to further enhance the Arts program, a new sound stage facility will be constructed in Lot B near the Child Development Center and Life Skills Building.

This facility will offer a realistic working environment for teaching the full range of skills required for theater and modern film productions. It will include a new sound stage with overhead catwalks, a set fabrication shop, a prop shop, a costume shop, outdoor work yards, exterior set staging, and a yard for mobile equipment and support spaces. In addition to meeting the growing demand for program expansion, this facility will also provide rental opportunities for the college.

Target Construction Dates: 2028 –2030
