Gilbert Center: Cultivating a Creative Legacy

The Gilbert Center is a project of the Ross Lynn Charitable Foundation, created to carry forward the shared legacy of artists Ross Lynn and Kit Gilbert. Located in the heart of Downtown Ruston, the Center is a vibrant space where creativity thrives, community is nurtured, and the arts are accessible to all.

Rooted in Ross and Kit’s lifelong commitment to creative expression and connection, the Gilbert Center is more than a place—it’s a living legacy. Through exhibitions, workshops, residencies, and community events, we’re building a home for the arts that reflects Ross and Kit's vision and invites everyone to be part of it. Together, we’re transforming lives through the power of art and making Ruston a more vibrant, inspired, and connected place to live.
