Universal Preservation Hall

About Us

Thanks to a group of dedicated and visionary Saratogians who wouldn't let the space be turned into a parking lot—we have been able to restore the 1871 church into a true community space, adding to downtown’s vitality and continuation of a culture of the arts that Saratoga is coming to be known by. The 501(c)(3) organization, Universal Preservation Hall (“UPH”), has worked to transform this gem of a historic building; generated commerce for downtown and surrounding businesses through street traffic, patronage of restaurants and shops as the theater goers head to concerts of all types, wedding receptions, lectures, dance performances, theater productions, film festivals and film series, corporate meetings, art gallery events, etc.
