About the Strom Auditorium

 



Welcome to the Strom Auditorium

 

Strom Auditorium belongs to the people of Appleton, Camden, Hope, Lincolnville and Rockport. The Five Town Community School Board of Directors wishes to make the auditorium available to our community of learners for use as a performing arts center, a teaching facility and a place for educational, cultural and civic events.

The 826-seat facility opened in 2000. It was the result of the fund raising efforts of the Friends of the CSD and more than 600 area businesses and community members whose donations helped to build the project. Strom Auditorium was named in honor of local educators Mort and Jean Strom.

The Camden Hills Regional High School and its associated programs have first priority of use, whether students are the performers or the audience. Second priority for use includes all other public schools in the five town region. In addition, the School Board wishes to make the auditorium available to organizations, municipal groups or individuals within the district who wish to sponsor appropriate civil, cultural, educational, recreational or political activities as long as these activities do not interfere with the conduct of the school programs and are in the best interest of the school system.
