History

The Barry Arts Building was completed in 2015 as part of the Arts in the Village project to create an arts community at ODU. The building is named after longtime ODU benefactors Richard and Carolyn Barry. Prior to 2015, the visual arts were housed in both the Visual Arts Building (VAB) and the F. Ludwig Diehn Center for the Performing Arts.
