The Music Hall, built in 1885, is listed on the National Register for Historic Places, is one of 6% of theaters across the United States built before 1900, and is the oldest operating theater in Westchester. Originally used as a multi-purpose space for everything from horse shows to opera, the Music Hall was one of the first theaters to show silent films in 1901 and was exclusively a movie house from the 1930s to the 1970s.

 

In 1980, The Friends of the Mozartina, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit, educational, and cultural organization, purchased the Music Hall in order to preserve a National Landmark and to establish a center for the performing arts. Today, the Music Hall is a fully operating venue for both live performances and films and serves tens of thousands of people residing in Westchester, Rockland, Putnam, New York City, Connecticut, New Jersey, and the Bronx. Every year, over 30,000 children attend performances at The Music Hall and hundreds more learn to dance, sing, and act on the theater’s stage.
