Revive The Reeves Campaign Gains Community Support

WOODSTOCK, GA — Woodstock-based Elm Street Cultural Arts Village has made gigantic strides in its Revive the Reeves campaign to raise $100,000 by Dec. 31. Thanks to fundraising efforts, a gracious community, an awesome party hosted by David and Melissa Potts at Founders Insurance Group LLC and area residents, we have pushed to the halfway point of $100,000 goal.

The Reeves House, which is located along the Noonday Creek Trail near Market Street, has been vacant for decades and will be the centerpiece of Elm Street's plans to transform the structure into a visual arts center.

Upon completion, the Reeves House will host a myriad of Visual Arts offerings. There will be a rotating gallery space featuring artist from near and far. A 24/7 maker’s space dedicated to artists and their crafting, allowing them to create and feature their art for all to see and experience. There will also be classroom space, history space and a coffee shop/ bar space open to all who enter the Reeves.

“We want to break ground in January, but it won’t just be breaking ground on a historic home; we believe it will be breaking ground on a growing culture and another heartbeat for the community," said Christopher Brazelton, executive director at Elm Street Cultural Arts Village.
