About

Newnan is known as "The City of Homes," but it's fast becoming "The City of Arts" as well. The Vault Gallery is a professionally designed space inside Newnan's Wadsworth Auditorium that holds diverse art exhibitions of community interest in the fall through spring. This is thanks to the passion and collaborative efforts of the City of Newnan, the Newnan Artist-in-Residence Program, and UWG's Culture Lab—with special support from both the Hollis and Blackwell charitable trusts.
