Above are conceptual renderings of the Gilmer Performing Arts Center by Breaux & Associates Architects. The GPAC will serve as a cultural center for the entire community and provide classroom space for GHS Fine Arts classes.The GPAC was approved under the current 2020 ESPLOST to provide half of the necessary funds. The remaining funds for the project will be provided from the anticipated 2023 ESPLOST. At its November regular meeting, the Gilmer County Board of Education approved a referendum to be put before the voters in March 2023 in consideration of continuing the current ESPLOST. Pending voter approval, the anticipated start date for the project will be in 2023.
