Centennial Courtyard

"Pincer" by Kansas City artist STRETCH stands at the   center of the Centennial Courtyard.  The sculpture was   purchased with funds donated by Mary Jo Springe, an   active supporter of the Carnegie Arts Center, in 2001. 

A Century of Service:

At the southeast entrance to the Carnegie Arts Center is the Centennial Courtyard.  The Centennial Courtyard is a brick courtyard that was created in 2000 to celebrate the Carnegie building's 100 years of service both as the Leavenworth County Library and the Carnegie Arts Center.

Generosity Remembered:

The courtyard recognizes the many individuals, families, and businesses involved in the building's past, present, and future.  Since the courtyard's dedication in 2000, over 100 bricks have been placed in the courtyard as memorials of loved ones and in honor of donors.

Bricks can be purchased from the Carnegie Arts Center and engraved in honor of or in memory of the special people in your life.  If interested in purchasing a brick, please contact the Carnegie Arts Center or download and print the Centennial Courtyard brick form.
