Narrows Center for the Arts, Performance venue and art gallery in Fall River, Massachusetts
The Narrows Center for the Arts is housed in a renovated mill building with views toward Mount Hope Bay and contains two exhibition galleries plus a concert space. The venue accommodates various artistic presentations and exhibition formats within a historic industrial setting.
The center was established in 1995 and later relocated to the former American Printing Company building constructed in 1906. This conversion of abandoned industrial space into an arts venue reflects the revival of an industrial neighborhood.
The center displays works from established and emerging artists in its two separate gallery spaces throughout the year. These rooms serve as places where visitors encounter contemporary art directions and local talent.
The venue operates Thursday through Saturday with advance ticket sales available during open hours. Visitors should plan ahead to confirm that their desired performances or exhibitions are scheduled during their visit.
The facility operates entirely through volunteer staff and public donations while using renovated industrial spaces as studios for local painters and photographers. This model demonstrates how community engagement transforms vacant factory buildings into active artistic centers.
