Howland Cultural Center

Established in 1979 as a hub for art, culture, and history in the historic 1872 Richard Morris Hunt building, designed originally as a library. The building was the first in the City of Beacon to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Howland Cultural Center has earned its reputation for its exceptional acoustics in the Northcutt Hall gallery. The gallery is free to the public and is open on most weekends, by appointment, and by chance.
