TV Lounge (FKA Blackbox Theater)

The Forbes B&W Lounge is space for Forbes students: we host movie nights (we had a giant TV installed in 2021), yoga classes, and  study breaks for our residents. It's quiet and secluded during the day, and students frequently take advantage of that for studying and writing. The space houses our ping pong table as well as an air hockey table, and two large tables for study or board games. There are comfy couches as well!

In its former life as the Black Box Theater, the room was a space for performances by dance and theater groups. After our students expressed interest in converting the space into a lounge/game room, we moved the ping pong table down there and at the FCC's request we bought an air hockey table to add!

Since the transition to a lounge space, we no longer book the B&WL for outside groups' rehearsals, performances, or events. If you are a Forbes student and would like to utilize the space for a Forbes community event, please use EMS.

Have more ideas for using or improving the space? Let your FCC members or the college office staff know--we want the space to reflect your interests and to feel like home!
