Hoogland Center for the Arts is a performing arts facility in downtown Springfield that combines theaters, studios, and galleries in one building. The space serves as a hub for multiple resident organizations and provides rooms for rehearsals, exhibitions, and presentations.
The building began as a Masonic Temple in 1909 and stood for generations before undergoing complete renovation. The transformation was completed in 2003, when it reopened with its new purpose as a center for the arts.
The center hosts theater productions, concerts, and exhibitions that draw audiences from across the region and showcase local talent. These varied performances shape the cultural life of the city and provide space for different artistic voices to be heard.
The facility is located downtown and easy to access, with a parking deck on the adjacent property for visitors. It is best to check ahead for specific events and programming since offerings vary by season and schedule.
The building contains three distinct theater spaces that allow for simultaneous performances at different locations within the center. This setup enables multiple groups to present events at the same time without overlapping.
