At their September 3 meeting, Texas Commission on
the Arts designated seven communities with the first official State of Texas
Cultural Arts District Designation. Here's what was said about us in the announcement released by the TCA. . .
The City of Winnsboro through their Main Street program has spearheaded the
Winnsboro Cultural Arts District (WCAD). The district encompasses the downtown
area of the city and is bounded by Locust Street to the north, Mill Street on
the West, Carnegie Street to the south, and Walnut Street on the east.
The WCAD
has twenty-two cultural attractions which set it apart from other surrounding
communities in northeast Texas. In addition four performance venues are up and
running or planned, and the Winnsboro Center for the Arts is at the vibrant
heart of the district.
A goal of the WCAD is to enhance the quality of life for
both residents and visitors and stimulate economic development for the historic
downtown with the attraction of new cultural resources and arts-related
businesses. WCAD will work as the catalyst toward these efforts as it builds
collaborations in the city and region.
