Performance and Arts center hosts Chamber function

ROCHESTER - Chamber of Commerce members on Thursday got an up-close and personal look at one of the jewels of what is hoped to be the city's ongoing downtown revitalization effort.

The Rochester Opera House hosted the chamber's monthly Business After Hours event at the center, which was formerly the Carney Medical Building.

The Rochester Performance & Arts Center is a not-for-profit arts organization that combines versatile studio and performance spaces, art gallery, and comprehensive arts and educational programming for students, children, teens, adults, and seniors in a comfortable and uniquely supportive environment.

The center is expected to be extremely versatile with space for music lessons, ensemble practice as well as private parties that can hold up to 180 (75 banquet seating). There's also a main stage for social functions.
