ART CENTER

The FAC Art Center is a newly renovated, converted church building at 5 East Second Street in Downtown Frederick. Our historic building not only houses resident organizations, public art projects, exhibitions, and offices, but  also serves as an affordable venue for our member artists and organizations to hold events,exhibitions, and performances. The FAC Arts Center is a cultural hub and anchor point for the arts in Frederick County. 

The FAC Art Center  functions as a place for the community to engage in public art both inside and outside the building and complements the FAC Public Art Initiative.
