The historic Hall certainly doesn't look like it is nearing its centenary birthday.
The Hall is now open and the Tomerong School of Arts are celebrating with a reopening of Tomerong markets on Saturday, July 18.
Tomerong Hall has been closed for all activities due to COVID-19 restrictions and the management committee has taken advantage of this closure to utilise funds received from the NSW Community Building Partnership program to paint the hall inside and out, and carry out urgently needed repairs.

Saturday 18 July will be a grand reopening of the Hall, as well as the first market in many months, and visitors and residents alike are invited to visit the markets next Saturday and see the "new look" hall for themselves.
Robyn, the Acting President of Tomerong School of Arts committee said she would like to reassure the community, safety is of the upmost importance to the hall committee.
With community wellbeing in mind, a COVID-19 Safety Plan has been developed so that everyone's market shopping experience will be a safe one.
"Things will look a little different from our previous markets due to current safety requirements", Robyn said.
"This includes having separate Hall entry and exits, readily available hand sanitiser, cashless transactions where possible and other details which are now becoming the norm for all of us in this new COVID world."
Tomerong Hall has had a great response from market stall holders and they are looking forward to welcoming back their regulars.
The Tomerong Rural Fire Service may also be turning up to make some great sausage sangas.
