Dating back to 1885, the building originally functioned as a planing mill and later housed a machine shop and blacksmith shop. In 1939, it became a fully operational pecan processing facility. In 2017, the space was reimagined as a vibrant art studio and creative venue, preserving its historic character while fostering new artistic expression. The building’s history is tied to the legacy of Gus Askew, a Blacksmith who worked in the area after the Civil War and passed down his trade, symbolizing resilience and craftsmanship.
