Elm Street Cultural Arts Village has received news that the Imlay Foundation has awarded them a grant of $30,000.00 to support the Revive the Reeves project.

The Reeves House is an old farmhouse, built in 1897, the same year Woodstock officially became a city. Vacant for decades, this historically significant home will be transformed into the heart of Elm Street Cultural Arts Village. The Reeves House itself will house an arts gallery and library, where the community can gain exposure to the rich variety of local artistic talent. In addition, the plans call for expanding on the historical house footprint to include 4 Studios for established and emerging artists working in a variety of disciplines, a community space to engage with the community, a computer lab to teach all sorts of scientific and artistic classes, instructional space, complete with pottery wheels, a kiln, easels and more, and a catering kitchen, which will serve as the branch into the next segment of phase II, the culinary and community gardens.
