Clearwater Artist Studios

CDBG funds are being used to create a catalyst for neighborhood revitalization with the Gibson Village community.

The first phase of renovations to Clearwater Artist Studios, the city’s former electric operations center, is complete. Artists are currently leasing nine studios from which they work to create, teach, and sell art. A 2,200 square foot gallery enables the artists to hold exhibitions of their work. 

Site improvements will be complete by Summer 2012, followed by further renovation of interior space within the site. Once fully renovated, Clearwater Artist Studios will contain over 30 studios, a gallery, a community market space, and a café. The adjacent Village Greenway and open space will offer opportunities for outdoor concerts and events.
