Macomb Community College spreads wings into Mt. Clemens Art Center
More life is breathing into downtown Mt. Clemens as Macomb Community College begins offering classes in the restore Anton Art Center.
The Anton Art Center in downtown Mt. Clemens is attracting a bit of attention.
The recently refurbished venue just became the new home to a local theater troupe and now Macomb Community College is starting to offer art classes there. The college’s Center for Continuing Education will offer a number of classes there, ranging from ceramics to painting. The classes will be held this fall.
The Anton Art Center underwent a $1.6 million expansion and renovation last year. The building, 125 Macomb Pl., is in a former Carnegie Library that has been the city’s art center since 1969. It joins a number of other building renovations, new business start-ups and new housing that has been breathing new life into downtown in recent years.
For information on the classes, call (586) 498-4000.
