About Hunter Smith Band Building at UVA


Three levels of rehearsal halls, practice rooms, instrument and uniform storage and offices make up this bright, streamlined building that hosts the Cavalier Marching Band, as well as the basketball band, the Olympic sports ensemble, the wind ensemble and the concert band. The $12.7 million project, designed by William Rawn Associates, was made possible by a gift from Hunter Smith, the building's namesake. Smith is a longtime supporter of the U.Va. band program, having jointly given $1.5 million with her late husband, Carl W. Smith, in 2003 to help start the marching band program.
