The Beaux Arts style building at 222 North 7th Street features classical architectural elements and symmetrical design throughout its structure.
Constructed in 1906 by the Modern Construction Company, the library operated as a public institution until Indiana State University acquired it in 1979.
The library transformed into an art building in 1984, providing classrooms and educational spaces for Indiana State University students.
