Dumas Center
Venue in Roanoke, VA
Key to the renaissance of Henry Street, the Dumas Hotel, once host to jazz greats Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald, underwent a $4. 2 million renovation into a facility providing modern, technically-evolved auditorium and meeting venues for private and public functions. The Dumas brings accessible and affordable resources for education, training, entertainment, performance and celebration. Right next to the Martin Luther King Plaza and Bridge and modern municipal parking, close to interstate and major routes, it's a short historic stroll on the Railwalk to downtown museums, shops and eateries.
