Located in the coastal Olympic Peninsula city of Port Angeles, the Field Arts & Events Hall represents the region’s most significant combination of arts, entertainment, and special events. Completed in June 2023, the project serves as a cultural hub, elevating the arts and creativity within the community through a gathering place rooted in its natural beauty on the city’s inviting waterfront.

The 41,600-square-foot downtown facility includes public spaces that rise from the street to a second level, providing wrap-around views of the city and the surrounding picturesque landscapes. The coffee shop and art gallery on the ground level converge in a light-filled central atrium showcasing the building’s beautiful timber framing and a cascading staircase connecting to the floor above. The center’s second level features a 300-seat state-of-the-art conference and event space enclosed with a curtain wall system to maximize the breathtaking water views that welcome the community and visitors into the space.

The hallmark of the building is the new 500-seat multi-purpose auditorium that houses a versatile AV system skillfully designed to accommodate a wide range of performances, including bands, orchestras, quartets, movies, solo performances, and dances. The advanced AV system interacts seamlessly with the lighting system to provide the best event experience.
