Hubbard Hall Projects
Cambridge, NY |

|
One hundred years ago, HUBBARD HALL was home to
traveling road shows, town meetings, dress balls and chautauquas. Although the Hall closed in the 1920s and remained unused for 50
years, it is once again a hub of cultural activity. In 1978 members
of the community formed Hubbard Hall Projects, Inc., a
not-for-profit corporation and purchased the building to restore
and operate as a community art center. Now, its a buzzing hub of cultural activity in our area, with
dozens of programs and workshops, a critically-acclaimed theatre
company, a community dance program, a village store co-op and art
gallery on the first floor, and more.
This historic opera house, with its
turn-of-the-century stage curtain, ornate Victorian gas chandelier,
stenciled walls and chestnut woodwork, appears basically unchanged.
Roof repairs, new fire escapes, rewiring, a new heating system and
air conditioning system, a rear addition, an elevator and numerous
other repairs are complete.
