Join Claremont McKenna College for the grand opening of the Kravis Center on Friday, October 21, 2011. The Kravis Center, named in honor of Henry Kravis '67 and Marie-Josée Kravis, is composed of intimate indoor and outdoor meeting spaces, flexible classrooms, and academic research areas.

The building’s design creates exciting synergies among students, faculty, departments, and research institutes. Experience first-hand the remarkable engagement of CMC’s students and faculty during the dedication festivities in October.

Designed by world-renowned architect Rafael Viñoly, the Kravis Center creates a defining architectural identity for CMC. Sunny terraces and breathtaking views of The Claremont Colleges and the San Bernardino Mountains set the stage for the growth of the College’s collaborative culture in a visionary new facility.
