Renaissance Hall, located in downtown Fargo, is a 100-year old building that once served as a farm implement warehouse and dealership. The building  was donated to NDSU in 2001 and renovated into a state-of-the-art facility for the Visual Arts department and for portions of the Architecture and Landscape Architecture departments and the Tri-College University office. Ren Hall features numerous art and design studios and classrooms, a wood shop, computer laboratories, digital fabrication facilities, an art gallery and an outdoor sculpture area.
