The existing structure and current site was commissioned and built by local philanthropists, Florence R. and Clarence G. White in 1929.

The White family, as new residents of Redlands, gifted a new band stand amphitheater structure they named the "Prosellis," from Latin, loosely meaning "before the seats".

[4] The Redlands Shakespeare Festival has occurred the last three weekends in May every year since its inception in 2004, presenting three full-scale Shakespearean productions in repertory, along with a series of educational lectures, community workshops, and special events.

The home was completely renovated and excavated to add restrooms for events, meetings and performances at a cost of over $1.8 million.

The home overlooks the Redlands Bowl and is now used as executive office space for the Association and Performing Arts groups.
