Florida Studio Theatre (FST) will break ground on the McGillicuddy Arts Plaza on Wednesday, October 29, marking the beginning of the most ambitious expansion in the theatre’s history. The new Plaza will serve as the centerpiece of FST’s campus, anchoring a bold vision that that is designed to meet the growing needs of FST’s artists, audiences, and community.

At 11:00 a.m., FST leadership, donors, and community members will gather at the construction site for the official Shovel Ceremony, symbolically marking the start of the McGillicuddy Arts Plaza project.
