Navigating the CCAC

In 2018, the Canady Creative Arts Center transitioned to a new room numbering system to improve navigation through the building.

  • Floors are numbered 1 through 5.
  • Rooms have a 4-digit number.
  • The first digit corresponds to the room's floor.
  • For mid-levels, a 500-series number has been assigned.

For example, Falbo is a half-level up from floor 1, so the number assigned is  1512.

Updated building maps, a thorough explanation of the new numbering system, and an old/new room number conversion spreadsheet can be found below.

Office Signage

To update the information you would like included on the insert for the sign next to your office,  please complete the  Office Signage Form. To ensure consistency throughout the building, the Production and Facilities Office will print revised inserts for you as often as is necessary. For example, if you change your office hours per semester, we can swap out your insert.

Temporary Wayfinding Signage

To help aid your guests as they travel through our building, feel free to request our custom temporary signage package for your public event. This signage is in addition to the blue permanent signage and directories already in place throughout the building. We print our signage on bright gold media with large, easy-to-read text and helpful directional arrows. The amount of signage we provide scales with the size of your event. Public events that happen in a single room may only receive signage at building entrances (depending on its location). Large scale conferences that occur all over the building can receive custom directories, hallway decision point signage, and destination signage. All signage will reflect the same language that you send to your guests (e.g., schedules, itineraries, or information packets). Because of this, we ask for two weeks notice for large scale events, and one week notice for single room events. For questions or to request signage, contact  CCA.Production@mail.wvu.edu.

AEDs

Three Cardiac Science Powerheart G3 AEDs serve the Canady Creative Arts Center. One is located in each of the following locations: the main lobby just outside the house right entrance to the Clay Theatre, in the second floor lobby near room 4083, and in the sound and light lock at the house left entrance to Bloch Hall.

 Parking at the CCAC

Parking at the CCAC is regulated by the University Parking and Transportation Office. The Production and Facilities Office works with the Parking Office to accommodate special parking requirements for events at the CCAC. Most parking needs require advance planning to ensure a pleasant experience for your guests.

The CCAC is primarily served by lot 45 in the front and lot 70 on the Art Museum side. Without special arrangement,  lot 45 requires a permit from 7:00am to 5:00pm Monday through Friday, and  lot 70 requires a permit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Additionally, short-term paid parking is available behind the building (ST9) and on the other side of the Museum Education Center (ST1).

Parking in loading/unloading zones and special designation spaces (i.e. ADA, Emergency Vehicles Only, etc.) is enforced 24-hours without exception.

Student Parking

Free student parking is available in the Coliseum lot across Mon Blvd. from the CCAC. Students may also utilize the short-term paid lots. Alternatively, student permits are available online from the  Transportation and Parking Office  website.

Faculty/Staff Parking

Per University regulations, all faculty and staff are required to obtain a permit in order to park in a campus lot. Most types of permits issued by the parking office designate one specific lot in which the permit is valid.

However, the University acknowledges that collaboration with colleagues may require parking on other campuses on a temporary basis. Permits for Evansdale lots are valid in lots 5 and 7 (Downtown), lot 42 (Law Center), lot 52 (Chestnut Ridge Research Building), and lot 81 (HSC). Any colleagues who have a valid permit for a Downtown, HSC, or Law Center lot may park on a temporary basis in lot 45 at the CCAC. The Parking Office defines 'temporary basis' as 'can not be consecutive days'.

15-minute Visitor Parking

There are three parking spots designated for 15-minute Visitor Parking located adjacent to the drop-off lane in front of the CCAC. These spots are reserved M-F from 7am-5pm for visitor use without a permit. Guests who have been issued a temporary permit should find other available spots. Permit holders who park in a Visitor spot during restricted hours are subject to citations.

Temporary Guest Parking

When guests are expected between 7:00am and 5:00pm Monday through Friday, special action must be taken to ensure they do not receive a citation for parking without a permit.  For events which are expected to bring in 50 or more guest vehicles, the Production and Facilities Office may request that the Parking Office suspend ticketing in lot 45 in front of the CCAC.

When 8 to 50 guest vehicles are expected, the Production and Facilities Office can request an event specific temporary permit be created. This will be sent to the event coordinator via email for distribution to all attendees. The attached pdf must be printed and displayed on the vehicle's dash and is only valid for the hours denoted on the permit. The Parking Office asks for two weeks notice on these requests.
When 7 or fewer guest vehicles are expected, One-Day Visitor Parking Permits may be issued. Each School Office is authorized to issue these permits. Alternatively, the Dean's Office and the Production and Facilities Office may issue these as well.

Longer Short-Term Guest Parking

Guests who require multi-day parking, including guest artists in residency, may be issued multi-day visitor permits rather than issuing a stack of one-day permits. This is handled on a case-by-case basis so please contact the Production and Facilities Office to inquire as early as possible.

Paid Overnight Traveler Parking

When groups meet at the CCAC to depart for an overnight trip, we can  purchase Multi-Day Overnight Parking Permits, which will allow the attendees to park in the lower section of lot 45. The Parking Office does charge for these and asks for two weeks notice on these requests as they are required to create event specific permits.

 

Locker Usage

Lockers throughout the CCAC are managed by the Production and Facilities Office.

During the school year, all locker usage must be registered with the Production and Facilities Office using the form below. Locker assignments will be valid through 5/16/22. All students are eligible for locker usage pending availability. Faculty, staff, and student organizations may register lockers as well if additional space permits.

To claim a locker, you must first put your lock on a vacant locker. Then, register your locker using the online form below. You will receive a confirmation email. Open registration closes 9/13/21. After that time, please bring your lock to the Production and Facilities Office to inquire about available lockers.

Students may use only the locker registered in their name and may not change lockers with another student without authorization. While students may store their personal property in these lockers, hazardous or flammable materials may not be stored in lockers.  The College of Creative Arts does not assume responsibility for the security of the contents of lockers.

24” wide lockers are reserved for the exclusive use of cello, tuba and euphonium students only as identified by applied professors. In the event that a waitlist is formed, the School of Music reserves the right to redistribute these lockers at their discretion.

All lockers must be emptied by 5/16/22. Any locks left on lockers after that time will be removed and the locker contents disposed of at the discretion of the Office of the Dean.

Locker assignments for the summer are by special arrangement with the CCA Production and Facilities Office. Please email  CCA.Facilities@mail.wvu.edu to inquire.
