Wynee Warden Dance Studio
2014
On November 6, 2014, another addition to Florida Southern College's arts programs was completed - the Wynee Warden Dance Studio on Johnson Avenue. The building, specifically designed as a space for all dance classes at the College, was funded by Wynee Warden, a generous donor to the college. A dancer herself, she was present at the dedication of the facility, which was designed by Wallis Murphey Boyington Architects, the company also responsible for several other buildings on campus.
Winifred Wynee Warden, also nicknamed Tutu, was a generous philanthropist through the Bert W. Martin Foundation founded by her father. She made many charitable donations towards education and health throughout her life. She had a passion for ballet and cooking, prompting her donations to the dance studio and dining hall.
