The Wheeler–Schebler Carburetor Company was one of the Indianapolis's most important auto parts manufacturers and the last automobile parts factories in Indianapolis, Indiana to survive from the first decades of the 20th century. The Wheeler–Schebler Carburetor Company Building was the company's original building at the Barth Avenue site and now houses the Wheeler Arts Community. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.

The 60,000-square-foot building, formerly a vacant factory, has been completely renovated into an artists’ residence and University of Indianapolis community arts and service center – complete with classrooms, office space, 36 living/working studio lofts for artists, and a theater.
