Accessibility
Last updated January 1st, 2026: The Buttonwood Tree is a two room establishment. The performance area is flat, with ample room for mobility equipment, there is no elevated stage. All areas are wheelchair accessible. There is a significant incline from entrance door to lobby and currently we are looking into having an automatic door installed.

Bathroom door is non-automatic, outward swinging, inside locking, latch on right side. Difficult to open from inside.
