The Oscar F. Boyd Cultural Arts Center at Wilmington (Ohio) College opened during the fall semester 2005 and quickly became the campus' new focal point. The center features the Hugh G. Heiland Theatre, Meriam R. Hare Quaker Heritage Center, David & June Harcum Art Gallery and a two-story academic wing. The $7.5 million center has been described as "The College’s front door to the community." The renovation and construction project is the centerpiece of the college’s $17 million "A Living. A Life. A Difference: The Campaign for Wilmington College." While the Boyd Center has an academic focus on theatre, music and art, some 70 percent of classes in the facility in fall 2005 were in non-fine arts disciplines.
