This charming building was constructed in the 1870s as a livery stable (for the horses that drew carriages from the railroad station to the Proctor House Hotel). It was extensively renovated one hundred years ago by H. Langford Warren, Dean of the Architecture School at Harvard University. After the renovation, it was used as Proctor’s gymnasium for the better part of the 20th century, with shower rooms on the north side. Slocumb was improved in 2009 with new insulation, windows, and added space, and is now home to studio art, ceramics, and a photography darkroom. . Learn more about Proctor's arts programs!
