Cheney Hall

Cheney Hall is the perfect spot for your family or business event.

The “Auditorium” refers to the historic performance and event space (with a flat maple floor) that is approximately 62’ long by 44’ wide. The Auditorium’s capacity for theatre seating is 300 and for banquet seating is approximately 200.
