American Legion Post 1041

Described in the ''UB Spectrum'' as an "unpretentious diamond in the rough", the American Repertory Theatre moved to its current location in Grant-Amherst in 2015 from its former home in the Delaware District with the help of Dwane Hall, the owner of the '''Sportsmen's Tavern''' next door, creating in the process a grassroots-based performing arts alliance that's bolstered the already sizzling Amherst Street cultural scene. The ART's new home is an intimate "black box"-style playhouse with fifty seats and a production schedule that regularly includes not only a mix of classic and contemporary theatrical works, but also live music, film screenings, poetry readings, and a variety of community events.
