The Howland Cultural Center, established in 1979, is a hub for art, culture, and history in the historic 1872 Richard Morris Hunt building, originally designed as a circulating library. The building was the first in the City of Beacon to be listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Howland Cultural Center is renowned for its exceptional acoustics in the Northcutt Hall gallery. Our gallery is free and open most weekends, by appointment, and by chance.
