Savannah has been waiting for the Cultural Arts Center for some time. After more than two years of construction, the center opened its doors in April 2019, only to close less than a year later due to the precautions taken by the city to stop the transmission of COVID-19. Now, they are back with online classes, improved infrastructure, and a hopeful look into the future. The temporary closure of the building was not in vain, said Stuart Miller, director of the cultural resources department for the city of Savannah. Miller stepped into his position in early February – six weeks before the center was forced to close.
