The 340 capacity performing arts studio hosts a diverse selection of events including concerts, debates, lectures, films, and other activities, many of which are broadcast throughout WAMC's seven-state listening area and online at wamc.org. In 2001, WAMC President and CEO Alan Chartock had the idea to expand the station's ability to provide on-air performances both live and recorded.
He envisioned a place that would be a hybrid of performance venue, broadcast studio and cultural arts center that would give individuals, groups and organizations within the community access to its facilities, as well as provide the general public with a unique and intimate concert hall unlike any in the capital region.

Great venue!!! Would definitely go back. Had parking, which was nice. Concessions and bar area both had some good things(including wines and bottle/can craft beers). The sound was what really blew me away. Most music venues just seem to want to be loud. This place placed a huge emphasis on sound quality. I really appreciated that.
