Otis/Parsons Center Opens: Ground-breaking ceremonies will be held today for a $13-million complex at Otis/Parsons Art Institute. The five-story complex will contain studio spaces for senior students, faculty offices, a 450-seat auditorium, a two-story library and media center. The 60,000-square-foot project, scheduled for completion in September, 1991, is the first new construction at the downtown Wilshire Boulevard campus in 30 years. Renowned contemporary artist David Hockney, who was awarded an honorary doctorate degree by the school in 1985, will give the keynote address at the ceremony.
