A Gift that Keeps Giving

Edmond Town Hall was a gift from Newtown benefactor Mary Elizabeth Hawley, who named the building after her great grandfather, Judge William Edmond. It served as Newtown's municipal center until 2009, but has always provided a unique space for entertainment, events, sports, governmental, and civic activities. As such, it has been the center of the Newtown's creative community for almost 100 years.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to provide unexpected entertainment experiences — live performances, films, community events, and more in a culturally-rich historic setting — for the next 100 years.
