Powered by GoogleFirst time at the McColl Center for Charlotte Zinefest. It's an amazing space and there was a live printing demonstration going on in the basement. Check their schedule for other activities!
Beautiful building with history. The art is amazing and the staff are the greatest! Friendly, welcoming, and helpful.
A wonderful art gallery and studio space for the creatives in the Queen City. With thoughtful exhibits that showcase eclectic voices and artists with stories to tell. On the edge of the Queen City within the 277 loop, the McColl has a parking lot with some street parking nearby. Walkable from the Lite Rail and next to the VAPA center.
Very good place! Lots of interesting art works! Very comfortable, there are several large elevators and air conditioning inside. I recommend!
Great places are created by great people. And so it is with McColl. I had the opportunity to be partner of a visiting artist and participate in the life of the McColl Center. Numerous events, performances, exhibitions, very interesting studios and, above all, people! It's worth taking a moment to get to know the program of events, because the art and culture in Uptown seems to be holding up very well! Thank you very much for your hospitality and greetings to the whole team!
