It is a 50 by 75 feet (15 m × 23 m) single-story frame building with a stage and with a partial basement. It was built in three stages, the first believed to have been by the local members of the Zapadni Cesko Bratrska Jednota (ZCBJ), or Western Czech Fraternal Union, around 1913. It was doubled in size the next year. A 1915 expansion added the last third of the building, including the stage and a basement, and added a new roof joining all three sections. The first 50 feet (15 m) has just a wooden foundation; the last section has a concrete foundation.[2]
