Did You Know?
- The Brown Center was named in honor of Baltimore philanthropists and former MICA trustees Eddie C. and C. Sylvia Brown.
- An investment manager, entrepreneur, and philanthropist, Eddie C. Brown is the founder and president of Brown Capital Management, one of the country's oldest African-American owned investment management firms.
- The Browns' gift to help construct Brown Center was one of the largest gifts to an educational institution by an African-American family in the country's history.
- When it opened, Architectural Record called the building "the finest modern building erected in Baltimore or Washington" in a quarter-century.
Brown Center's Falvey Hall, a 525-seat auditorium, hosts an array of events, from artist talks to symposiums to Experimental Fashion minor's annual Multi Media Event.
Leidy Atrium's soaring gallery space has become a unique exhibition space for three-dimensional works and performances.
The Center is filled with state-of-the-art equipment for Animation and Graphic Design programs, and seniors are also assigned individual work stations.
“If you look at all the buildings, I think Brown Center is what grabs your attention. When it rains, you can see the water dropping by on the windows, and when there is light, it makes really cool shapes and shadows.” - Eun Young Ko ’19, Architectural Design
