In 1974, Evergreen area art enthusiasts formed and incorporated the Evergreen Arts Council as they pursed a plan to build a visual arts/community center. Their intention was to provide mountain area residents with a place to acquire high quality art instruction, view a wide variety of art exhibitions, and engage in art activities. In November 2003 that building became a reality with the lease of a 3,500-square-foot facility in Buchanan Park, partnering with the Evergreen Park & Recreation District.
