Hutchins Street Square offers great classes for seniors!! For many years, I was a regular beginning tap student (aka Sassy Senior Tappers). I loved that class. Now I am loving the new line dancing class for seniors. It just started today, August 7. It’s SO fun, and what an excellent way to get exercise while stimulating the ol’ “gray matter!” Nora is the perfect instructor for newbies like me!
Great place for family reunions and weddings. Clean place. Keep up the good work 👏
Very nice venue to hold events such as wedding reception, birthdays and parties. We delivered 160 Chiavari chairs to this location for a wedding reception and the staff at the facility was very helpful when closing up at night.
Enjoying my first ever yoga class on Monday night from 6-7pm, and feeling it! Although it, I believe, is considered an advanced class the instructor takes the time to have students adjust their workout to fit their abilities. My wife has joined me, she is much better than I am, and although she expected the class to be to boring, she's a Zumba person, she has found it challenging and actually inspiring. Looking forward to continuing in the future. Thank you Melody for making this work for us!
Contrary to the previous reviewer, you can rent a room and offer a class. You would just have to actually rent it, and they may choose not to advertise it as it is not their class. The halls are beautiful especially Kirst hall and patio. Also check out the Holtz room which also has an amazing patio. Holtz was renovated last year and looks amazing. The Charlene Powers Lange Theatre is awe inspiring, one of the nicest I have been to. Near the classrooms there is a hall with busts of famous composers. They offer a summer music in the park concert series free to the community. They also have some pretty cool programs. This facility was originally a high school until it burned down. The story I was told by a former student was that the arsonists were worried that they would not be allowed to graduate. They broke into the admin building and in the process of burning their school records; they lost control of the blaze and burned down a good portion of the school. My understanding is that Kirst was the old gym. Crete kitchen was possibly the cafeteria. Lange Theatre was the auditorium but the stage was on the opposite side of the building.
