Believing that Springfield could be a place for artists of all kinds to share their talents if only they had the proper space to call home, Jack Mann, professor of art, spent his sabbatical last semester creating the downtown artists colony he always envisioned for the city.

Professor Creates Artists Colony
Mann, who recently moved himself into the largest of the 10 workspaces in The McAdams Building Arts Co-Op, located on the third floor of the McAdams Building on High Street in downtown Springfield, credits local real estate developer Jim Lagos ’70, owner of the McAdams Building, with helping him create the colony. Mann hopes the co-op will eventually be a refuge not just for the artists themselves, but also for Wittenberg students to learn more about different art forms and for members of the community to enjoy open house events..
