Lithuanian Hall

Lithuanian Hall is a community building on Hollins Street that brings people together for social events and cultural performances. The space offers rooms for weddings, celebrations, and regular dance gatherings, functioning as a hub for meetings and assemblies.

The building was founded in 1917 and served as a venue for various speakers and political discussions during the 1920s. Its early existence shows the role such places played in community orientation and social life.

The space serves as a gathering place for the Lithuanian community and preserves Baltic traditions through collections and records displayed on site. It reflects how immigrants wanted to maintain their roots while building a life in a new country.

The space can be rented for private celebrations like weddings or birthdays and hosts regular DJ dance events. Visitors should check ahead to learn what events are scheduled or how they can access the building.

In 1929 an altercation broke out when an anti-Communist crowd attacked the building and attendees defended themselves with chairs. The event shows how important the space was to the community willing to protect it.
