It was designed by Hunt & Burns and built by contractor William A. Hudson. The clubhouse is in Bungalow/Craftsman style. It is currently the home of the Santa Paula Theater Center. It is surrounded by a landscaped park in English landscape garden style that was part of the original design for the club. The Santa Paula chapter, formed in 1913, was the ninth in the state of the women's club first established in Oakland by Dr. Adrian Ebell in 1876. Its aim was the advancement of culture. Alice Stowell McKevett donated land for Ebell Park and contracted the first half of the building in memory of her husband. The dining room and kitchen were added in 1928 by Harriet McKevett Teague and the McKevett Corporation. In 1987 the McKevett Corporation deeded the building to the Santa Paula Community Fund, who in turn deeded it to the Santa Paula Theater Center. For several years the club and the thespians shared the space but the ladies have since parted to a space rented by the First United Methodist Church. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.〔 Its NRHP nomination asserted it is "an outstanding example of the shingled Craftsman style", and the "only example of its type in Santa Paula where a Craftsman era institutional building was designed with a complementary landscape plan." It is also one of few preserved historic clubhouses in Ventura County and is the only women's clubhouse in Santa Paula.〔 and (accompanying 26 photos from 1985-1986 )〕 ==See also== * Ebell of Los Angeles * Women's club * Women's Improvement Club of Hueneme 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ebell Club of Santa Paula」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
