Hibernian Hall is your home for multicultural arts & culture in the heart of Boston!
As a performing arts destination that contributes to MPDC’s mission of neighborhood revitalization in Roxbury, Hibernian Hall offers year-round programming that reflects Roxbury’s cultural heritage. Hibernian Hall is also an excellent venue for non-profit events open to the public. The ballroom is available for community presentations of music, dance, theater, film, and spoken word performances. Contact us to discuss your next event in the Ballroom, check out our rental guide, or fill out an inquiry form here.
Hibernian Hall is proud to celebrate the success of our Youth Book Workshop, created in partnership with award-winning author Valerie Foxx. Designed for children aged 5–10, the program guided participants through storytelling, illustration, and the entire publishing process. The workshop resulted in two newly published, illustrated books—now available on Amazon (e-book & paperback): The Mysterious Box: Three Sisters Adventure by Elianna Casimiro Rodriguez and Eternity’s Journey: The Magical Necklace by Erik Casimiro Rodriguez. All proceeds support the young authors’ school funds—an inspiring milestone that reflects Hibernian Hall’s commitment to nurturing creativity and expanding opportunities for our community.
We encourage you to take a look, celebrate this accomplishment, and help spread the word. If you’d like to support, you can purchase their books here:
- The Mysterious Box: Three Sisters Adventure – by Elianna Casimiro Rodriguez
- Eternity’s Journey: The Magical Necklace – by Erik Casimiro Rodriguez

The History of Hibernian Hall
After the Irish residents began moving out of Roxbury, the building changed. It became the headquarters of the Opportunities Industrialization Center, an international job-training program. Then, for a decade, it sat unoccupied and falling into disrepair. Madison Park Development Corporation purchased Hibernian Hall in 2000. It was fully restored to its original grandeur and reopened in 2005.
Hibernian Hall remains a wonderful gathering place for music, dance, and theater, reflecting the diverse cultures of the area. It continues to serve as a destination for arts and culture in the heart of Roxbury’s Nubian Square.
