Metropolitan Performing Arts Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Metropolitan Performing Arts Center (now known as The Met) in Spokane, Washington, United States, was built in 1915 by local developer August Paulsen, and was originally known as the Clemmer Theater. It was considered state-of-the-art in its day, seating 756 patrons.
It later became known as the State Theater, operating as a movie theater for many years before being converted into the Metropolitan Performing Arts Center. It was originally designed by noted theater architect Edwin W. Houghton. The Spokane Symphony performs three pairs of chamber orchestra concerts here annually.
