Carrollwood and Firehouse centers persevere through pandemic, look forward to more in-person events, classes, exhibits
A pair of cultural oases at opposite ends of Hillsborough County have remained community assets throughout the COVID-19 pandemic.

Many of these measures remain in place. But with vaccinations now widely available and some precautionary mandates lifted, the centers’ leaders are hopeful the worst of the pandemic is behind us.
