After the original theater was lost in the 1925 earthquake, a new Spanish Colonial Revival building was designed by George Washington Smith and Lutah Maria Riggs, completed in 1928. Today, the Lobero remains one of the city's most treasured performing arts venues, celebrated for its elegant architecture, intimate setting, and rich history of presenting world-class music, theater, dance, and community events. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/b3960c10-a312-11f1-9988-bfc638c33a5a-rimg-w1200-h723-dcc8c8c8-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/b3d81e20-a312-11f1-9988-bfc638c33a5a-rimg-w628-h740-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg Event Sponsors: Carlisle Flooring & La Lieff WinesCarlisle FlooringCarlisle Wide Plank Floors is a premier American manufacturer of luxury hardwood flooring, renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, timeless design, and commitment to quality.
