Today the Arts Building is made up of three distinct wings around a central block: Dawson Hall (east), Molson Hall (west), and Moyse Hall (north), and currently houses the Department of French Language and Literature, Department of English and the Department of Art History and Communication Studies. The building also hosts lectures for several other departments from the Faculty of Arts. In April 2019, the building was renamed the McCall MacBain Arts Building in recognition of a private donation of C$200 million, the largest single gift to a university in Canadian history, from the McCall MacBain Foundation.
