2022 Annual Report
the Cultural Arts Center
The Whitewater Cultural Arts Center is the home of the Whitewater Arts Alliance, Inc and is located on the second floor of the historical building, the White Memorial Library.
An excerpt from the Whitewater Landmarks brochure: "The White Memorial Library is an example of simple classicism with its hip roof, entrance decorated with colossal ionic columns and full pediment over a wide frieze. This design is one of the standard library designs by the noted architectural firm of Claude and Starch of Madison. These architects were well known for their prairie style houses and the interior of this building is in this style. Mary Flavia White donated this building to the city for use by the Whitewater Free Library (1904 to 1992). It now is home to the Whitewater Cultural Arts Center and the Whitewater Public television station."
