Centennial Art Center

Comment on Facebook

An important part of Nashville Tennessee's Metropolitan Board of Parks and Recreation, Centennial Art Center is located in the 25th Avenue North and Park Plaza / Charlotte Avenue corner of Centennial Park. It was originally built as a swimming complex in 1921. Closed in 1959, it was renovated in 1971, becoming the first Metro Nashville Government-owned structure rehabilitated for "Adaptive Reuse." Outdoor courtyard areas were developed to include a performance space, exhibition spaces, and work areas. The building serves as headquarters for Metro Park's Visual Arts Department, houses two studio/classrooms where visual arts classes are taught and arts workshops are conducted and a gallery where regional artists exhibit their works.
