The FOLBR Board and Slate Creek Hall Committee members have been raising funds for the project and are proud to report that close to $15,000 has been raised from individual donors and $18,000 from local foundations (Summit Foundation and Freeport-McMoRan). We are awaiting additional foundation decisions for another $20,000 requested. Slate Creek Hall needs your support to reach our goal! Let us know if you would like more information and/or a tour of this beautiful building.
Built by the Slate Creek community in 1936 using WPA funds, FOLBR's Slate Creek Hall was once a lively gathering place for dances and local gatherings. One of FOLBR's most exciting goals for 2026-2027 is reactivating the Hall as a community resource, offering special events, art shows, talks, movies, dances and more. However, as the steward of this county historic building, we need to address a damaging condensation issue by replacing the roof, adding insulation and improving air circulation. In order to do this work we need to raise $70,000.
