Carnegie Building
The Carnegie Building was built in 1904 as one of Andrew Carnegie’s philanthropic contributions to the growth of cultural opportunities for rural communities. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the building had housed the Lawrence Arts Center until 2002, when the popular community center expanded into a building designed to emphasize the beauty of the arts and exhibits.
