Opened in 1926, Stambaugh Auditorium was a gift to Youngstown from Henry H. Stambaugh, a major industrialist in the Mahoning Valley. Today, Stambaugh Auditorium is the host for concerts by local and nationally known artists, wedding ceremonies and receptions, fundraisers, recitals, and lectures. The Concert Hall is home to a recently restored E.M. Skinner pipe organ. Stambaugh Auditorium was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. It is also home to Opera Western Reserve which presents a professional opera performance every fall.
