A Home for the Arts

Capital Campaign by the Denison Arts Council

Denison has always had a creative soul. What it has lacked — until now — is a permanent home for it.

The Denison Arts Council is raising funds to transform 500 W. Woodard Street into Denison's first dedicated Cultural Arts Hub: a fully restored historic building in the heart of downtown that will serve as a permanent space for artists to create, for the community to gather, and for the cultural identity of this city to be preserved and passed forward.

This is a capital campaign. Every dollar raised goes directly toward the acquisition, restoration, and buildout of the Hub — a space that will house gallery exhibitions, artist studios, maker spaces, performing arts programming, and community events for generations to come. The building is historic, the location is central, and the moment is now.

The Denison Arts Council is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Your gift is fully tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law.
