Sacred Heart Schools’ Ursuline Arts Center has a unique history on the Ursuline Campus. Built in 1924 by the Ursuline Sisters of Louisville and called Ursula Auditorium, the building was initially used by Ursuline College and Sacred Heart Academy for its dramatic and choral performances. It was later used by Sacred Heart Model School, the K-8 co-ed school on the Ursuline Campus. In 1968, the Ursuline School of Music was founded by the Ursuline Sisters, and soon the building was used for music lessons and recitals, and later dance and drama lessons and productions.
