John Waldron Arts Center

Rose Firebay

The Rose Firebay was at one time the Bloomington Fire Department fire truck bay from 1915 to 1992. The renovation of this space was made possible by a generous gift from Judith and A John Rose and has since become a popular intimate space for performances, parties, meetings, and just about everything else!  (It is adjacent to Radio Station WFHB and often hosts live radio broadcasts such as "Saturday's Child") 

For rental information please contact the performance department at 334-3100 ext 107. Rental Rates and Information
