Shryock Auditorium, Performing arts auditorium at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale, US.

The neoclassical building features three floors, a grand stage, and a seating arrangement that accommodates 1,200 visitors in its main hall and balcony.

The Illinois General Assembly allocated $135,000 for construction in 1915, leading to completion in 1918 under architect James B. Dibelka's design.

The venue presents over 100 annual performances, including symphony concerts, theatrical productions, and distinguished speaker series for the university community.

The auditorium contains a 3,312-pipe Reuter organ in the upper balcony and maintains modern lighting and electrical control systems installed between 2002 and 2014.

President Henry William Shryock, for whom the building was named, died of a heart attack in his office within the building on April 13, 1935.
