The new Fisher Event Center creates a new center of campus for the Almaden Country Day School, a private preschool through 8th grade school. The 16,500sf Event Center incorporates an official high school sized gym with basketball and volleyball courts; a stage with an advanced lighting grid, lighting positions, and audio system; dressing rooms; audience and student restrooms; a servery; and a lobby incorporating a trophy case and art donor tree.
The building also features a Flex Room, connected to the auditorium with folding glass walls, that will be used for yoga and dance, as well as for board meetings and special presentations. The project also includes a new donor courtyard, outdoor seating areas, and a new drop off lane to improve site circulation.
