Paul Mitchell The School Schenectady is located right in the heart of downtown Schenectady. Our 18,000-square-foot beauty school reflects the look and feel of the historic neighborhood. Right next door is the Stockade, New York’s first historic district, with its pre-Revolutionary War houses and churches, village square, riverside park, art shows, races, and river fests. Across the street is Proctor’s Theater, built in 1926 as a vaudeville-movie theater. This refurbished gem now showcases Broadway musicals, international ballets, current and classic movies, concerts, and plays. Nearby Jay Street is another popular destination, known for its restaurants, coffeehouses, and live entertainment.
In addition to downtown events, attractions, and venues, Schenectady offers easy access to upstate New York, with its quaint friendly villages, forests, lakes, rivers, and streams. In just a few minutes, you can be in nearby Albany or Saratoga, with its annual Tulip Fest, concert series, performing arts center, and world-famous horseracing course. A short drive or train trip takes you to spectacular New England destinations, including New York City, Boston,Connecticut, Vermont, the Great Lakes, the Adirondack Mountains, and Lake George, with their breathtaking beaches, boating, theme parks, snow skiing, and more.
