The Memorial Arts Center was established in 1968 as a memorial to the victims of the 1962 Orly plane crash. In 1982 the name was changed to the Woodruff Arts Center in honor of Robert W. Woodruff, founder of the Woodruff Arts Foundation, and the arts center's greatest benefactor. The center for the arts is now run by the Woodruff Foundation and encompasses the Alliance Theater, High Museum of Art, Young Audiences, the 14th Street Playhouse and the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. - Local Identifier:
