About Midtown

The Midtown Center has a deep history and connection to the city of Holland. Long before it housed nonprofits and weddings on the weekend, it was home to students, teachers and the staff of the Holland Public Schools. Jubilee bought Midtown Center in 2005 with the dream of revitalizing the city's core.  Transformed classrooms house a variety of community focused nonprofits. Among those classrooms, The Study Hall hosts several weddings and other special events throughout the year.

Midtown's History

In 1913, Holland High opened the location that is now the Midtown Center. The Study Hall had a slanted floor and a full height stage at the front. Students would see how far coins, balls or other objects could roll on the floor. This three story building held classes until 1962 when it closed as Holland High and became the Junior High. Jubilee purchased the building and block in 2005 and began intense renovations. Thanks to thousands of volunteer hours, generous corporate donations and lots of hard work the Midtown Center opened to tenants. In 2008, the first three tenants moved in. Today, the building is at full capacity, housing 11 nonprofit organizations.
