"Bowie Community Art Center"
Thesis, Beth Barnes ©2008

Bowie Community Art Center was designed for a middle class community in Maryland with a primary focus on an art after school program. The concept of the design is that of mutual support between an individual and the surrounding community.

The building was broken down into two sections: Performing Arts and Visual Arts. Each section was designed with a central community node that contains either a pre-function/intermission space or a community gallery.
