About Center For The Arts The Center was originally a home in the established area of Wyoming. Built in the 1850s the house was purchased by the Masons in the early 1900s and renovated for use as a Masonic Lodge. The Masons are responsible for the addition of the beautiful ballroom facility on the main floor and Masonic Theater on the third level that are offered for rental purposes. Paul Bartel bought and renovated the building in 1995 in order to provide a community facility for the arts. After the building was updated, Mr. Bartel donated the building to the non-profit. For his support of the Arts, in 2000 Mr Bartel was honored by Governor of Ohio The Center For The Arts is now the home to several departments which operate as a part of the Center:,, and Wyoming Dance Center. Organizations such as Flying Cloud Academy of Vintage Dance, Cincinnati Civic Orchestra and Cincinnati Contra Dancers also use our facility as their home base for workshops, rehearsels, concerts and balls. We are a 501( c ) ( 3 ) nonprofit, tax exempt organization whose mission is to foster appreciation and skills in the arts for children and adults of all ages and abilities.
