Alpharetta Arts Center / Houser Walker Architecture

The Alpharetta Art Center repurposes a 10,000 sf public library, designed in 1986 by Atlanta architect Anthony Ames. A cornerstone of the City of Alpharetta’s “Garden and Arts District”, the structure and grounds feature improved pedestrian circulation through a park-like landscape, with sculptures, outdoor gathering and performance spaces, and new connections back to Alpharetta’s burgeoning downtown. Active studio production programs will relocate to the new center and will benefit from larger studios with controllable, natural light and a large gallery and black box theater to engage the community.
