	Online Tour   Byars Hall Byars Hall serves as the college fine arts center, housing the art, music and theatre departments. The three-story building includes classrooms, musical rehearsal halls, a computer lab, a student art gallery, private piano practice rooms, a greenroom and the Theatre Department's costume shop. The building is the oldest academic structure on the Emory & Henry campus, with most of the current structure having been built in 1889. Fire destroyed two buildings previously located on the same site. The first of those was a boarding house designed by Col. William Byars, one of the college's founders, and constructed in 1836-37. To honor Byars' contributions to the life of Emory & Henry, the building bears his name.    3   4   5   7   8   9   10   12   13   14   15   16   17   18   19       20   21   22   23   24   25   26   27   28   29   30   32    Emory & Henry College, P.O.
