Following extensive renovations completed in 2023, it now functions as a multi-purpose arts center and performance venue. The restoration aimed to preserve the building’s original architectural details while updating it for modern use, including enhanced acoustics and accessibility. The space is designed to host a variety of events including concerts, film screenings, lectures, and community gatherings; becoming a focal point for cultural life within Sag Harbor.
