Founded in 2000, the Troy-Pike Cultural Arts Center began when a group of local citizens saw the potential in the old Troy post office building. The elegant old Troy post office on the corner of Walnut and Market streets in downtown Troy, Alabama (circa 1911) they believed was a landmark well worth preservation.

Situated in Alabama’s River Heritage region, the Pike County area is flourishing with talent, creativity, and cultural diversity, thus there has been a critical need for a center in which these resources could be collectively incorporated. There are several potential benefits to our community as a result of this effort. The Troy-Pike Cultural Arts Center would:

• Enhance our economic potential by drawing businesses and individuals to our community by portraying an increased quality of life

• Provide support for the current Arts Council

• Provide opportunities for adults and youth alike to experience the arts in a variety of genres – from music and visual arts to dance, literature and theater

• Serve as a creative hub, hosting workshops, events and recitals, and housing a world-class art collection

• Provide an International presence through Troy University by exposing our citizens to new cultures, and foreign students to ours
