ART CENTER

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

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