전남대 대강당 재개관

▲ A new auditorium named "Minjumaru"

The CNU Auditorium will reopen with an invitation concert of the Gwangju Symphony Orchestra on May 27, 2016. CNU completed the remodeling project of the auditorium in the beginning on May of 2015. It is the first time that the auditorium has been renovated for 40 years since it was built in 1975. The remodeling has improved facilities such as air conditioning, lighting, soundproofing and audience seating inside of the building. CNU also plans to build a new outdoor exhibition hall of the CNU Museum in front of the auditorium. On May 10, the university announced the new name of the auditorium is “Minjumaru” after gathering CNUians’ opinions on changing the auditorium’s name. The remodeled auditorium is expected to function as the landmark of CNU and a representative cultural space for Gwangju residents.
