It was built to serve as a community center for Marion and was a donation of Ferdinand Julius Fohs, a notable petroleum geologist who grew up in Marion.

Fohs donated it to the Marion Board of Education to serve as a community center and as an auxiliary building for Marion High School, which was located across the street. The building included a music room, a lounge, a study hall, a small library, classrooms, and an auditorium. It is a two-story brick building on a limestone foundation. It has a recessed center bay in its front, north-facing facade, topped by a stone pediment supported by four Corinthian columns. Fohs formed a geological firm, Fohs and Gardner, with James H. Gardner as partner. Fohs is credited with helping discover the Mexia oil field in 1920. (en)
