WHAT'S HAPPENING AT THE 1912 CENTER



Call to Artists

"This and That"
Things that go together.

Now announcing the theme for our 2012 winter hallway gallery show, "This and That" is a show that features things that go together. For the February 2012 show, we want artists to create original pieces of art that feature something that goes with something else. Like peas and carrots. Pride and prejudice. Ham and eggs. War and peace.

Art will be received at the 1912 Center on Monday, January 30. Pieces should be able to be hung on our walls. If you have questions about sizes or what our gallery space is like, please contact the office at (208) 669-2249 or visit the 1912 Center any time during business hours.

Then mark Friday, February 3, 2012 on your calendar from 5 to 7 pm and attend the gallery opening event for "This and That" and enjoy free food, music and ampersand themed fun this evening with the community. You will be able to guess what each artist has chosen to feature with the titles hidden under an interractive flap to make the art opening a fun discovery for everyone in the whole family. Hope to see you there.

2011-2012 Winter Market Season

The next market is Saturday, January 21, 2012
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

You are invited to join Heart of the Arts, Inc. for an expanded market season this winter. We will be hosting markets on selected Saturdays, adding an additional market at the begining of March. Customers should mark calendars now for the rest of the 2011-2012 Season: January 21, February 11 and March 3.

We are excited to offer the community a chance to shop from local vendors all winter long. Markets will feature artisan breads, fresh produce, food items for lunch, arts and craft vendors and a free children's arts activity.


RimRock Creations on the Plaza


Vendor space is currently only available on the Plaza for $10 per market date. All Plaza spots should be paid on the day of the market, due to weather concerns through the winter months. You may also join the waiting list for an inside vendor spot should one become available. Click the link below (or the Winter Market link on the sidebar) and if you agree to the conditions listed to participate, fill out the form to register.

Vendor Registration Here

Questions about the markets can be directed to the Winter Market Coordinator, Mary Jo Hamilton at (208) 882-0443 or the Heart of the Arts, Inc. (HAI) office. We look forward to seeing you at the markets.




1912 Center's NW Corner

Cornerstone Club

"Give a little, get a lot,"
to benefit the 1912 Center.

2011 Donor Roll
Click here for the list of donors. Heart of the Arts, Inc. wishes to thank the donors who joined the Cornerstone Club in 2011.

This winter we have identified the completion of the parking lot and site work as the project for early 2012 to be done in time for the 1912 Center's centenial celebrations. And this is where the greater Moscow community plays such a crucial role.


North side before any renovation


We are grateful to the citizens of Moscow who were able to become members of the Cornerstone Club in 2011. The Cornerstone Club is the annual giving program designed to support the 1912 Center's construction projects. Every dollar is put directly into the 1912 Center's building fund. No money goes to support operations, special events or maintenance projects. By joining at even the Building Partner level, you are supporting the work that Heart of the Arts, Inc. is doing to restore this fine historic structure for future generations. And showing your financial support helps us to apply for grants that reach beyond Moscow. It shows grantors that the very citizens who use this building, for a huge variety of reasons every year, also believe in making it a better place. A win-win for us all!

To find out how you can join the club and give at a level that is comfortable for you, contact the HAI office at (208) 669-2249 or send us an e-mail to1912center@gmail.com. Click on the Cornerstone Club link on our sidebar to see who has already given to the club this year. Members with a star before their names have given every year since the club's inception. Thank you in advance for helping us to see the parking lot project through. You'll enjoy even more parking at the Center when you next attend an event next year. And you can see the progress your gift has helped to make happen in a very visual way.


1912 Center Updates

What is new at the 1912 Center?

The sidewalk along Second Street has been completed and allows for a nicer walk between Van Buren and Adams Streets while heading downtown. We hope you get a chance to walk on it as it is wider than other sidewalks around town allowing for two people to comfortably walk side-by-side. This construction project has been paid for with a grant from the Idaho Department of Commerce.

Stay tuned this for landscaping work in the tree lawn along Second Street. We still have more work to do to complete the parking lot. We will be going out to bid for that project in January 2012 to get the building ready for the centenial celebrations.
