Fred Rouse International Center and Museum for Art and Community Healing - Transform 1012

Transform 1012 N. Main Street (T1012) is a non-profit coalition of local arts, grassroots, and service organizations as well as pro bono partners and individuals working to transform 1012 N. Main Street into The Fred Rouse Center for Arts and Community Healing. The group Transform 1012 N. Main Street (T1012) is on a mission to repurpose the facility once called Ku Klux Klan Klavern 101 into a cultural hub and arts center. The Transform 1012 Board models a pluricultural and shared leadership approach to acquiring, programming, and managing The Fred Rouse Center. This coalition ensures that the building will be led and programmed by representatives of the cultural groups that were targeted for violence and economic marginalization by the KKK, thereby returning resources to these communities.

The Projects Group was engaged in 2020 to serve as Owner's Representative to manage the project. The Fred Rouse International Center and Museum for Art and Community Healing will include a state-of-the-art performance space, exhibit spaces dedicated to social justice and civil rights artwork, and live and work studios for artists-in-residence.
