Cara Studios
Cara Studios is
located in the historic town of
Barnesville, Georgia just fifty miles south of midtown
Atlanta. Artist and owner, Cara, has established an
unusual and inviting atmosphere for her studio and
home in an old Carnegie Library. The town's beloved
building was built in 1910 with funds from the infamous
steel magnate and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. It is now
listed on the National Historic Register. Cara has restored the
building and maintained
the ambience of gentility afforded the
early 20th
Century. She also adapted it for reuse as gallery,
mini-performance space, and meeting place for art groups. The
upper floor is the artist's residence. In recent
years, many of the
cultural events in Barnesville have taken place at Cara Studios.
Cara is well known for opening nights of her exhibits which often
feature unique interdisciplinary presentations. The artist has also
created a sculpture garden on the property. Creative Adaptions II,
a branch of an architectural restoration and interior design firm
operates from the premises. <Cultural
eveings, performances and
tours are scheduled.
