FAIRMONT — Executive Director of the Red Rock Center for the Arts Sonja Fortune described the process of the COVID-19 pandemic as exhausting and heartbreaking, but she still focused on the Red Rock Center’s goal of keeping a strong presence of the arts in the community.
The Red Rock Center for the Arts first opened its doors in 2005. Prior to its opening, the Red Rock Center was the First Church of Christ Scientist and the building needed to be restored. Restoration work included the installation of an elevator making the building handicapped accessible, the roof and exterior block work were repaired, the stairways were relocated, the wood floor and trim were refinished and the stained-glass windows were professionally re-leaded and re-installed.
