Who We Are

Our History

In 1919, Moreland Elementary School opened its doors to educate the children of the Inman Park and Candler Park neighborhoods. After 63 years, the school board decided to close its doors.  At this time, in 1982, several community groups, primarily led by WRFG Radio, asked for a 10 year lease on the closed school building located at 1083 Austin Ave NE in Atlanta. The school board agreed to lease the building and then eventually sold the building to the new non-profit corporation set up to own and manage the building, the Little Five Points Center for Arts and Community.

Early on, the Center attracted a theater company called Horizon Theatre Company, as well as, a major community Arts organization called Euclid Arts Collective.  The Euclid Arts Collective has produced and sheltered many of Atlanta’s most promising and accomplished visual artists. In addition to Arts organization, the Center attracted important community organizations such as the Georgia Solar Coalition and Metro Fair Housing Services.

The Center has become a major factor in the community just as planned. Neighbors, funders, neighborhood organizations, and the general public around the Metro Atlanta area are involved in the Center.

Little Five Points Center for Arts and Community’s mission is to serve, empower and connect with and for our community.

Our Vision is to enhance the quality of life and to serve the needs of our community by;

  • Providing programs to enrich children, teens, seniors and families
  • Provide recreational, social and educational activities to residents of all ages regardless of ethnicity, gender or economic status, with the goal to connect and empower the community
