Downtown Apex has been going through a major transformation in the past few years with the intent of developing businesses in the area and also creating a great destination point for residents.  One area the Town of Apex focused on was the development of a world class cultural arts center.  We now have that in the heart of Apex - the Halle Cultural Arts Center. 

The recently renovated Halle Cultural Arts Center in Apex is gorgeous.  If you haven't stopped by make sure you do the next time you are in downtown Apex.  I'm not the only one that recognizes the success of the recent updates.  This month the Arts Center received the 2008 Anthemion Award from Capital Area Preservation.   

I asked myself, what is an Anthemion Award? 

The Anthemion Award recognizes outstanding dedication and committment to excellence in historic preservation in Wake County. An "anthemion" is a classical design element dating from Ancient Greece that is inspired by the fan-shaped leaves of a palm tree. "Anthemion" is the Greek word for "flower."  Aww! 

Way to go Apex! Just another reason to call Apex, NC home.
