Recital Hall, Clayes Performing Arts Center

Recital Hall at the Clayes Performing Arts Center is an intimate seated performance space on the Cal State Fullerton campus in Fullerton, California. With capacity for 200 audience members, it is well suited to organisers planning chamber concerts, guest recitals, small-scale music presentations, spoken-word programmes, academic showcases and carefully produced performance events where proximity between artists and audience matters.

The hall forms part of the College of the Arts’ established performing-arts environment, giving events a purposeful cultural setting rather than a conventional meeting-room feel. Its programming heritage includes student and guest recitals, chamber music and School of Music opera scenes, making it a natural choice for events that need a focused stage-and-audience format. The fixed audience capacity also helps organisers plan ticketing, invitations and front-of-house arrangements with clarity.

As part of the wider Clayes Performing Arts Center, the Recital Hall sits alongside several other music, theatre and dance spaces. This makes the campus a practical setting for arts-led occasions, educational events and presentations that may benefit from a university cultural context. A dedicated campus box office supports ticketed performances, while visitor information identifies nearby parking at the Nutwood Parking Structure.

External organisers can submit venue enquiries through Cal State Fullerton’s Facilities Use Administration. The university manages facility requests and provides coordination for space use, event requirements and related campus services. Availability and event arrangements should be confirmed directly with the university, particularly as academic and university programmes receive scheduling priority.
