IX Art Park Foundation, Charlottesville, VA
Over the years, event programming began taking place on an outdoor stage among the art and later inside the old warehouse. Free outdoor concert series, weekly salsa dancing, tributes to great artists like David Bowie and Aretha Franklin, a winter farmers' market... there have been precious few limits to what we could do with art and community in Charlottesville.
We currently produce over 250 events a year spanning many genres of music, dance, film, theater, crafts, and visual art, as well as family-friendly events, wellness-oriented events, events promoting diversity and inclusion, and one-of-a-kind immersive experiences like black light body paint parties and costumed theme nights such as Studio 54 or Roaring '20s.
