Transform 1012 | Fort Worth | Promoting Reparative Justice With Adaptive Reuse

Eight local organizations are working to transform the former Ku Klux Klan Auditorium at 1012 N. Main Transform 1012 N. Main Street is a coalition and community-based nonprofit organization whose mission is to transform the former Ku Klux Klan Klavern No. 101 Auditorium in Fort Worth, TX, into The Fred Rouse Center for Arts and Community Healing, named after a Black butcher and father lynched by a white mob in 1921. The Fred Rouse Center radically transforms a place dedicated to hate into a space reclaimed for communal care, healing, and creativity, while also returning resources to the communities and constituencies historically targeted for violence and economic marginalization by the Ku Klux Klan, specifically Black, Hispanic, Catholic, Immigrant, Jewish and LGBTQQ2SPIAA++ populations.
