The Fine Arts Center provides the core for the Fine and Performing Art Departments of San Juan College, and serves as a community performing arts theatre. Key design issues were the integration of the facility into the existing campus and pedestrian and vehicular traffic control.

The facility features an 800-seat auditorium/theater with complete stage, backstage and set construction areas. Special features include stage with full fly loft and grid platform, performance lighting and sound system, 50-piece orchestra pit with operable lift, removable seats for handicapped users, box seating and an auxiliary sound/lighting control console station on the front edge of the balcony.
