Harris Fine Arts Center courtyard with the title Bravo! in text.

The walls of the Franklin S. Harris Fine Arts Center are coming down. See three live camera views on this page. Or submit a memory of your time in the HFAC. The building was artsy and eccentric and long past its prime. And beloved. For those who called it home for years or decades, it was a place where the visions of their minds and spirits could take shape—embodied in sound and spectacle, in film and fonts, in print and pigment and pixels. Here is one last cheer.
