Starkweather Arts Center is a cultural and educational organization dedicated to preserving, promoting and fostering the arts in the Historic Village of Romeo and the surrounding communities.
Starkweather Arts Center is a non-profit art center located at 219 N. Main Street in Romeo. Art and drafting teacher in Romeo Schools for forty years, Helen Starkweather bequeathed her historic home and studio to become a community arts center to: preserve, promote and foster the arts in the historic Village of Romeo and the surrounding communities,
Many people have contributed to that vision from setting the groundwork for non-profit status, assessing the building needs, organizing the volunteers, manual labor, and finding the funding. The community took ownership of the vision and made it happen.
We operate by the generosity of membership dues, volunteer labor, grants, sponsorships, donations & fundraising. We host monthly art shows, Open Mics, a gift shop, classes and community events.
Miss Starkweather understood the value of art in a community.
