I'm excited about having a few new sites to paint, thanks to Cathleen Windham's involvement with Historic Nashville, Inc. This center is on the "2010 Nashville Nine" list of Nashville's most threatened historic places. (We will be painting more of these as well as some from the "2009 Nashville Nine" list.
Friendship Community Outreach Center – Located in North Nashville at 1703 Jo Johnston Avenue across the street from Pearl-Cohn High School, this c.1900 church building has served the surrounding neighborhood in numerous capacities for the past century. Reflective of the changing racial makeup of the surrounding neighborhood, the church has served both white and African-American congregations. In recent years, the church was converted into the Friendship Community Outreach Center. A few years ago, HNI documented this church as part of its county-wide Sacred Sites Survey Project. HNI encourages the property owner to sell this neighborhood landmark to an organization that will be able to properly renovate and maintain the church.
