Ewing Manor, located on the Sunset Hill estate of the late Hazle Buck Ewing sits majestically in a wooded landscape at the northwest corner of Towanda Avenue and Emerson Street in Bloomington, Illinois. The property was the home of Hazle Buck Ewing from the time of it completion in 1929 until her death in 1969. She bequeathed it the Illinois State University Foundation, which offers the use of the Ewing Manor Conference Center to educational, cultural, civic, and business groups, with limited availability for private events such as weddings. Also within these grounds is the unique Theatre at Ewing, an open air structure that is available for educational and cultural performances, and is the home of the Illinois Shakespeare Festival.The scenic grounds and gardens accommodate a variety of activities. Ewing Manor offers a gracious residential setting for as many as 80 people with audience style seating, or 60 for a sit-down dinner. If you are looking for a truly unique facility for your next business or social event, this elegant estate is likely to suit your every need.
