ACCESSIBILITY

Town Hall Theater (THT) is committed to making our facility and programs accessible to all.

THT offers more than 165 cultural events annually, as well as youth and adult classes in the arts. THT is located in downtown Middlebury with parking spaces available in the surrounding area, as well as accessible parking spaces and a curb cut available in front of the theater. There is a ramp located on the east side of the building that faces South Pleasant St. that allows entrance into the main floor lobby. Through the entrance of the new wing, there is access to the Seligmann Center for Learning and Engagement, Business Office, Byers Studio, and Jackson Gallery. From the Jackson Gallery there is an elevator to access the main lobby. Please Note: The elevator does NOT go up to the balcony.

There is elevator access in the new wing allowing for access to the second floor The Doug & Debby Anderson Studio, and the Silver Maple Scene shop located below ground.
