Henegar Center for the Arts

|
|
The Henegar Center was born
from the vision of a dedicated group of community leaders. As the deterioration
of two historical buildings in downtown Melbourne became increasingly apparent,
a small group formed to revive the treasured landmarks. The buildings, formerly
public schools, were donated by the Brevard County School System for transformation
into cultural arts facilities. The Henegar Center for the Arts was thus born,
named for Ruth Henegar, beloved principal for whom the original middle school
was named in 1963.
