While there are no longer "lot's of pretty girls available" at our location (please do not ask) we are very transparent about our history and are always looking for community insight and stories about our big, old building and the history it holds.

MACA was founded in 1972 as McDowell Arts and Crafts Association and later incorporated as McDowell Arts Council Association.
