Carnegie Center for Art & History
The Carnegie Center for Art & History, within the Downtown Historic District of New Albany, Indiana, is a local museum. The building was initially built as a Carnegie Library, first opened on March 2, 1904, with 11,125 total books. It is of Beaux-Arts architecture style. It was used as a library until 1969, when the new New Albany library was built. In 1971 it became the Floyd County Museum. In 1998 it was given its current name, after several renovations.
In addition to changing exhibits of contemporary art, the Carnegie Center has two permanent exhibitions. The newest is "Ordinary People, Extraordinary Courage: Men and Women of the Underground Railroad," which includes an interactive multimedia program. From the exhibit brochure: "This unique exhibit draws the national phenomenon of the Underground Railroad into sharp focus by revealing the contributions of ordinary people from New Albany and Southern Indiana, whose courageous acts helped overthrow the institution of slavery." The second is "Grandpa Makes a Scene: the Yenawine Dioramas," woodcarvings made by Merle Yenawine which depict early life in Georgetown, Indiana, as well as the Pilgrims.
