From architect's impression to leaving a lasting impact on all who pass by, over the last two years the Yoko Ono Lennon Centre has moved from a thrilling concept to a completed building. We are delighted to share with you the building progress over this time and look forward to welcoming all to visit when the Centre opens to the public in spring 2022.

The Centre, with exception of The Tung Auditorium, opened exclusively for teaching at the beginning of the academic term and will open its doors to the public in spring. We are immensely thankful to all alumni, students, staff and friends of the University who have supported the mission to bring this new visionary space to campus. For a final chance to leave your legacy on the Centre, you can name one of the 40 remaining Side Balcony seats in The Tung Auditorium.
