Kovalchick Convention Center

Groundbreaking ceremonies for the Kovalchick Complex took place November 13, 2008, and included an announcement of a challenge grant for $1 million for the facility from Indiana University of Pennsylvania graduate Chad Hurley, co-founder of YouTube, in honor of Indiana University of Pennsylvania music professor and track and field coach Ed Fry. In honor of Hurley’s gift, the Arena was named after Fry. The complex is named in honor of the Kovalchick Family, of Indiana, PA, who donated $2 million for the facility’s construction.

While owned by Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP), IUP selected OVG360 to manage the daily operations of the Kovalchick Complex.
