According to wikimapia:
The Music Hall is one of the largest buildings on campus and is located just off of the main entrance of U.S. Highway 6 (West Dodge Road). The building features an exterior sandstone sculpture on its facade.
The sculpture depicts a homeless boy who is told about Girls and Boys Town. The storyboard progression shows the boy being welcomed by Father Flanagan and depicts his education and the final panel shows him working as a productive citizen.
On the panel, written in Latin, is Father Flanagan’s quote, “There is no such thing as a bad boy.”
The Music Hall Auditorium seats 1,200 and is used for high school graduation ceremonies, school assemblies, special performances and awards ceremonies. Construction of the facility was completed in 1948.
