Shalin Liu Performance Center
The Shalin Liu Performance Center, home of Rockport Music, was constructed within the historic Haskins Building on the seaside village’s main street. The design of the 330-seat concert hall embraces the natural legacies of Cape Ann, weaving themes of wood, stone and water throughout. An expansive glass wall behind the stage offers audiences a spectacular view of the celebrated harbor beyond. A series of Douglas fir screens can be rolled into place for acoustic and visual enhancement during performances.
