Special Places on Campus: The Blue Room

Another favorite space on the Tandem Friends campus is the Blue Room, named for the color it was originally painted when it was added on in the 1960s, a period of great renovation and change for the property. With its tall windows and French doors opening out to the boxwoods, it must have been a lovely family room. As Tandem's original multi-purpose room, the Blue Room has held morning meetings, theatre productions, and concerts; served as a classroom; hosted events like Speaker Series, Senior Project presentations, PTA parties, class meetings, 8th grade dinner/dances, and even a 5th grade campout that got rained out; showcased student artwork on its walls; provided a quiet study space and the occasional winter warmup by the fire, and so much more. The PTA completely renovated the Blue Room in 2006-2007, returning it to its original color and glory.
