As a result, the Grandville Avenue Neighborhood Library opened in 1996, followed by the Grandville Avenue Academy for the Arts in 2001. Grandville Avenue Arts & Humanities was incorporated in 1999 to operate the Library and the Arts Academy.When the Library moved to a larger facility in 2008, GAAH's Board of Directors renamed the buildings the Cook Library Center and the Cook Arts Center in honor of Peter C. and Pat Cook.How We Operate ...We encourage you to learn more about GAAH operations by reviewing our strategic plan, our Funders Report from the Cultural Data Project, and our current 990.
