Where history is embraced, talent is cultivated and art, both visual and performing, are enjoyed

About Us
Located in downtown Lincolnton, NC, the Lincoln Cultural Center has been housed in the former location of the First Baptist Church since 1991. The Classical Revival style building was designed by Charlotte architect J.M. McMichael and constructed in 1922. One of its most beloved features is the magnificent stained glass Rosette window in the dome of what is now the Timken Performance Hall. Listed on the National Register for Historical Places, the Center provides the community with access to visual and performing arts.
