Bridges Auditorium, Academic auditorium at Pomona College, Claremont, US.
The Renaissance Revival building features white columns, vaulted arches, and wooden doors, forming a monumental entrance to the 2500-seat performance space.
Construction of the auditorium began in 1930, funded by the Bridges family in memory of their daughter Mabel, who passed away while studying at Pomona College.
The venue held performances by the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra from its 1932 opening until 1964, establishing itself as a major cultural center in Southern California.
The box office opens Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with additional hours starting two hours before each performance.
The auditorium ceiling spans 120 feet without support columns and features a 22,000-square-foot mural depicting zodiac signs in blue, silver, and gold.
