A grand re-opening for the Brownwood Art Center, located at 215 Fisk Avenue, will take place during its ‘First Thursday’ event from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 5.
Repairs and renovations are complete to the historic building, which re-opened Saturday, July 10 after suffering significant damage during the February winter storm.
“February we had the freeze, the pipes burst and everything pretty much had to be redone from the walls to the floors, so it’s a whole new art center basically thanks to donations from the community and our members,” said Sharon Cook, the vice president of membership for the Brownwood Art Association. “There’s a whole new floor in the gallery, the walls are painted white, we have new LED lights, it’s much brighter. We also had to rip out some walls and that allowed us to make additional rooms for meetings and classes.”

The Art Center in downtown Brownwood will re-open Saturday, July 10, as part of the July Jam Festival at Pat Coursey Park.
“Art, Music, People” (AMP) is a traditional Art Center event combining art exhibits, open-mic music and an opportunity to mingle and socialize. The Center has been closed since February after the historic freeze broke a water pipe in the attic and flooded the Center.
Repairs and renovations to the historic building at at 215 Fisk Ave. are almost complete and the July Jam festival seemed the perfect time for a “soft” opening at the Center.
“What a year! We made it through the pandemic,” said Craig Seger, president of the Brownwood Art Association, “and now we’ve got the Art Center ready to open again. I think people are going to be very impressed with the changes to the Center and all the upcoming events.”
