The Atlanta Opera’s new state-of-the-art facility slated to be finished in summer 2027 will be named the Molly Blank Center for Opera in recognition of a $27.5 million leadership gift given to the Opera’s comprehensive fundraising campaign from The Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation .
The Molly Blank Center for Opera will be partly constructed utilizing the existing historic Bobby Jones Clubhouse that opened in 1941. The property on Woodward Way along the Beltline will be renovated and expanded to include a 200-seat recital hall, rehearsal spaces, administrative offices and gardens to create a hub for music, arts and community engagement.
