The Grayson Arts & History Center reopens soon with renewed purpose to preserve the city’s heritage through art produced by local and regional artists and craftsmen. Historical memorabilia, photos, and period pieces, which date when the Kennerly-Cox House was built in 1890, will be on display.

“We will continue to preserve those artifacts and memorabilia but we want to also expand the scope of what has become our welcome center to include all those people who have an interest in representing us presently - and in the future - through their art,” said Grayson Mayor Allison Wilkerson.
