Follow the above directions. Instead of turning into the parking lot, proceed on University Parkway until you reach 900 East. Turn right, proceed south and turn right at Heritage Drive (corner by Creamery on Ninth Store). Turn right into a very small parking lot at the Heritage Halls Central Building where housing check-in will take place. If you reach Campus Drive, you have gone too far. We encourage campus housing residents to park in the “C” lots adjoining the residence halls.

VAN SHUTTLES

Between Tuesday and Friday, we will provide van shuttles between the Conference Center and the Harris Fine Arts Center. Vans will pick up and drop off passengers next to the gray marble Conference Center sign and north of the Wilkinson Student Center. Vans will run continuously during peak times and will be “on call” the rest of the day. The van driver’s cell phone number will be posted on the shuttle stop sign. Shuttles will not operate on Monday. It takes approximately 10 minutes to walk from the Conference Center parking lot to the Harris Fine Arts Center.

PARKING FOR EVENING EVENTS

For the evening recitals on Tuesday, July 31, and Thursday, August 2, you may park in Lot 2 east of the Museum of Art.
