A Hall Of History

From humble beginnings as a livery stable in 1864, Johnson Hall has become a hub of entertainment in Kennebec County.  As the oldest opera house in the state of Maine, Johnson Hall has provided residents and visitors with a range of plays, movies, concerts, and other arts over the last 150+ years.

Despite its storied history, Johnson Hall is committed to staying with the times.  Plans are in place to renovate the historic third-floor opera house, and the proposed design will fulfill expressed community needs for an accessible 400-seat theater and space for business meetings and small conferences.
