      1. Clowes Memorial Hall

        Clowes Memorial Hall of Butler University was conceived by Dr. George Clowes and his wife, Edith Whitehill Clowes, as a center of culture and entertainment. More than 9 million people have seen performances in Clowes Hall since it first opened on October 18, 1963. Clowes, designed by architect Evans Woollen, hosts numerous world-class lectures, concerts, and performances, including those of  notable organizations such as Broadway in Indianapolis, Music For All (Bands of America), and Butler’s own Celebration of Diversity Lecture Series. In the summer of 2013, Clowes Hall underwent significant restoration, with new seats, carpet, paint, roofing over the concert hall, and a state-of-the-art sound system added.
