When you’re in South Haven, Michigan, the name Foundry Hall is a common reference. A central hub for music and community heritage, Foundry Hall is a must-stop when you’re looking to experience the true heart of the city. Built on the idea of community improvement through the arts, Foundry Hall continues to grow its musical influence as visitors and locals alike make their way towards the organization’s many annual concerts and musical initiatives that keep South Haven a vibrant place to live and visit.
Making a Musical Impact
Officially hitting the scene in 2007, Foundry Hall was the brainchild of founder Andru Bemis who wanted to see a place develop where music brought the community together and made history and heritage stronger. The idea quickly caught on and Foundry Hall became the number one place for artists looking for a venue to fine-tune their craft and perform for live audiences.
Giving Artists a Place to Grow
Today, Foundry Hall is made up of local hubs around the city but continues to thrive as a place where aspiring and professional artists can flourish. The result is an incredible lineup of live performances that keep the city rocking year-round. Associated closely with other performing arts groups in South Haven, Foundry Hall is able to host entertaining events such as the Riverfront Concert Series and the South Haven Jazz Festival. Expanding on its efforts to foster an environment of musical growth and community inclusion, Foundry Hall offers multiple musical education courses to the public. Many of these happen on a drop-in basis and include fun opportunities such as a kid’s guitar club, open mic nights as well as opportunities to get together and sing gospel and spiritual favorites.
Community Beautification
Sh-amp (South Haven Area Mural Project) is yet another branch of Foundry Hall that leaves its aesthetically pleasing footprint on the very walls of the city. A group of artists dedicated to the mission of artistic integration has made a commitment to making their community more beautiful through color. Together, they are creating and delivering inspiring murals across South Haven that enhance the feel of the city, while reminding residents of the values they hold close.
