First Design Idea...

(Please keep in mind, this is a rendering & a rough idea of staging... Panels would have a stain to blend with other colors & is not exact to color...)  Major updates here include:

• Re-carpet existing stage carpet in charcoal gray & painting current parquet floor (epoxy paint for durability).  This would mute the electronics, cords & music stands and create cohesion.
• Introduce 4-6 freestanding, wood walls--with drop lighting.  This would create better sectioning, provide textural interest & could be re-purposed when major remodel is done (e.g. gym stage.)
• Install drop lighting (Edison or modern style chands) to warm stage area
• Potentially mount 2 50-inch flat screen TVs on each wall (provided we are gifted them.)
• Optional: add a piece to stage to bring grand piano up
• Remove organ (discard or place on Craigslist for pickup) & use that area for seasonal design, flag and/or banners

as a point of reference, this is the BEFORE:
