Helm Fine Arts Center

Helm Fine Arts Center is a performing arts complex on the campus of St. Stephen's Episcopal School in West Austin, overlooking Lake Austin and the surrounding Hill Country. It houses the Nancy Scanlan Art Gallery, the 410 seat Temple Family Theatre, and a 100 seat recital hall, plus an open air portico with views of the lake. The venue is used mainly for school programs, student exhibits, and performing arts events rather than public nightlife, so it functions more as a cultural stop than a bar despite how it is categorized here. It is worth checking the school's own event calendar before planning a visit, since access typically follows the school's programming schedule.
