The existing stone arts building at the Abernathy Arts Center needs significant repairs and updates. Due to the unsafe and unstable condition of the building, the City of Sandy Springs is going to construct a temporary facility. Scheduled to open in 2024, this new facility will add art programming spaces to the existing site. 
 

Status: Design phase approved by City Council on December 5, 2023.
