Beginning the week of October 12, 2026, the Town of Carthage will implement mandatory water restrictions while scheduled maintenance is performed at the Town's water treatment plant. Mandatory water restrictions are expected to remain in effect through December 6, 2026.
Ongoing downtown construction is resulting in temporary road closures, detours, and traffic delays around Carthage. Motorists should use caution, follow posted detour signs, and allow additional travel time when traveling through downtown Carthage.
The Community Building, affectionately known as the "Rock Building", is a historic building constructed using field stone found here in Carthage. It has served as the Carthage Town Hall in the past and now continues to serve the community as a rentable building for events and functions.
Security Deposits are required in order to secure rental. Deposits are refundable based on condition of property after your event. Please allow 2-3 weeks for refund to be processed.
Please call Town Hall to make your reservation and complete your rental application.
