The Wesleyan Connection: Campus Snapshot
UP, UP AND AWAY: Wesleyan’s Davison Art Center received a new fiberglass cupola atop its building Aug. 9. The new addition replaces a deteriorated wood cupola, which was removed in July. The new cupola is a replica of the former cupola. |
The 1,500-pound white, decorative cupola was hoisted by crane to the DAC’s rooftop. |
Contractors lower the cupola to a copper-rimmed base. |
The new cupola brings beauty to the DAC second and third-story views, as well as the DAC’s courtyard below. Macri Roofing provided the labor. (Photos by Olivia Bartlett) |
