About Old School Square
Old School Square Cultural Arts Center, located in the heart of charming downtown Delray Beach, was created thanks to the determination of a local group of citizens who saved the 1913 Delray Elementary and 1925 Delray High School buildings from demolition after they were abandoned by the Palm Beach County School District in the mid 1980’s.  Over $7 million was raised to restore and re-adapt the facilities for use as a museum and theatre. The center is on the National Register of Historic Places and serves as a gathering place for the community. Old School Square was the catalyst for the redevelopment and revival of downtown Delray Beach. The center was featured in a presentation at the Smithsonian Institution for National Leadership Forum on "Culture Builds Communities" and was singled out as an exemplary model of a community that used the arts to institute a positive change in the community.
