Our Impact

The Alcott Neighborhood started the arts center to save and restore the old Alcott grade school building as well as make a positive impact on area children and adults alike - inner city people who wanted an artistic leg up. We are in need of helpful people to step up and help the Alcott grow, renovate our historic landmark, and bring more artistic opportunities to everyone!

Alcott is at a point of change for the better. The organization has developed a great program of arts for the last twenty years - now let’s look forward to the next twenty!

We will continue working with our hometown artists in the future and want to grow the organization as we get ready for our building’s ONE HUNDREDTH birthday in 2023. Programming will continue as we restore the ol’ school building to its splendor.
