First City Art Center

First City Art Center, formerly the Belmont Arts and Cultural Center, has been "The Little Art Center That Could" in Pensacola since its inception in 1999.  Our role for the community is quite unique - we have been an artistic "hatchery" for many forms of art creation including glass, pottery, music and visual arts.  We allow children, students and adults of all ages to experiment with art media that they may not have a chance to experience otherwise.

The Center provides opportunities for people to create through glassblowing, glass bead making, clay sculpting, pottery on the wheel, hand-built pottery and music lessons for youth, with a continued emphasis on expanding offerings.  FCAC also conducts three popular and successful major fundraising events annually, with work by First City artists and guest artists. The Center's new home is located in the old water works building in the Long Hollow neighborhood at 1060 N. Guillemard St.
