Raclin Murphy Encore Center at Morris Performing Arts: Shaping the Next Century of Culture

Summary
For over 100 years, the Morris Performing Arts Center has been a cultural icon in South Bend. Now, with its centennial celebration complete, the historic venue is stepping into the future with the Raclin Murphy Encore Center—an elegant, two-story addition designed to elevate the patron experience.
Pemberton Davis was selected to lead the electrical and systems installations for this landmark project. From intricate, theatrical-grade lighting and precision control systems to expanded A/V integration and seamless tie-ins with legacy infrastructure, this project demanded a level of coordination and craftsmanship that we’re proud to deliver.
Every detail matters in a live performance environment—and we’re honored to support the arts community with installations that are both technically sophisticated and beautifully executed. For us, this isn’t just about powering a building; it’s about helping the city of South Bend shine a little brighter.
