​

 ​Description of the Hall and its Facilities 

The lovely heritage Tintenbar School of Arts is situated on the corner of Tintenbar Rd and George St in the Village of Tintenbar, 10 kilometres north of Ballina, on the far north coast of NSW.
Although the Hall was built in 1905 it has been extensively renovated throughout and now has all the space, amenities and equipment for private functions, celebrations and community events.
The building itself is on two levels. It is possible to hire one or both levels for your function.  The two levels comprise:
 
Upper level
                            Hall: with newly laid wooden floor, measuring 12.8 metres by 8.5 metres. It has a maximum seating capacity
                       (chairs only) for approximately 200 or table seating for 100-110.

                       Stage: is elevated and measures 6.5 metres wide and 3.7 metres deep.
                            Kitchenette: at the rear of the Hall has 2 roller door windows to interior of Hall and/or exterior to garden. It                           is equipped with regular fridge, large double door drinks fridge, microwave, double sink and urn as well as                                120 mugs and water bottles.
                          Covered verandah: a large northerly facing space measuring 10.6 metres long and 5.75 metres wide which is                         accessed through French doors from the Hall, is ideal for dinning out and gathering. It can comfortably seat                            60-80 people at tables.
                           Store room: with cleaning equipment.
                   Toilet block: with one male toilet, a disabled toilet with shower and three female toilets.
                          Pergola: which is detached from the Hall and provides an intimate space (6 metres by 3.9 metres) for                                            additional seating, entertainment and conversation. It can seat approximately 20 people.

Lower level
                          Commercial kitchen: is a large space measuring 7.5 metres square. It is suitable for preparation of food,                                     conducting cooking classes or a pop-up café/restaurant. It has a commercial dishwasher, deep washing up                                 sinks, 5 gas-burner stove with a large oven, a large fridge, a freezer and 2 stainless steel movable preparation                         benches. Kitchen has seating and tables for approximately 30 people.
                          Lower verandah: runs the length of the kitchen and provides an ideal elevated, ‘village view’ sitting out space                         for entertainment or dining.

Management of the Hall 

The Tintenbar School of Arts is community based and operated by a voluntary committee of local people who love to see the Hall utilised and enjoyed by all.  The Hall is well-used as a venue for private functions such as parties or weddings.  The Hall Calendar, on the Website, indicates the Hall usage and availability.
The Hall is the community meeting place/centre for a number of community groups offering regular activities for people of the area ranging from Playgroup, Red Cross, aged person’s bowling, martial arts, dancing classes and regular meetings, concerts and music nights.
The Hall has no paid staff, so Hall hirers are expected to take full responsibility for the care and cleanliness of the Hall as well as the conduct of their guests. The Hall secretary manages the Hall Bookings by email tintenbarhall@gmail.com
