Art Downtown was established in April 2006 as a cultural arts center featuring a fine art gallery, studio, theatre, and production company. We represent a group of nationally and internationally known contemporary Georgia artists and writers.
Art Downtown is the home of the Brunswick Actors' Theatre (BAT), a 113 seat boutique theatre. Saturday evening and Sunday afternoon performances are accompanied by coffees and desserts. We also schedule by request special performances for large groups on and off our premises.
In addition to our galleries and theatre, we curate and manage Southeast Georgia Health System's Outpatient Care Center Art Gallery and produce 5 Art and Craft Shows annually in the Pier Village Parks on St. Simons Island for the Pier Village Association.

"Art-- has everything to do with creative development of our brains at an early age. I was watching a documentary on China the other night and a point was made by the Chinese, that what they lacked was creative vision en masse. Imagination was foreign to them by and large. They could copy it, improve it, and manufacture it but could not create it. Interesting. Their advice to us in America was to keep creating and thereby China and US could maintain a symbiotic relationship. But....aside from that. The arts - music, painting, sculpture is so important to the psyche of freedom itself. Not to mention the healing nature of expression. And, if we stop teaching and exploring art in our schools, we are headed for another Dark Age. Art is reflection, and we all need to look at "the man in the mirror" to survive -- Art."
