Beautiful venue with amazing stained glass and stone construction (converted temple). Amazingly renovated inside, with intimate seating and and not a bad one in the house. Parking is available right across the street giving very easy access. OWLchestra, a community string orchestra run by students, delivered a wonderful performance the night we attended, and it was great to be able to see the event in person. Highly recommended!
