ABOUT: McColl Center for Art + Innovation is a nationally acclaimed artist residency and contemporary art space in Charlotte, North Carolina. Located in the former Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church in Uptown Charlotte, McColl Center houses nine individual artist studios, more than 5,000 square feet of exhibition space, and multiple common-use spaces, including a studio for large-scale sculpture fabrication.
Mission Statement: “We champion contemporary artists and spark creative experiences for positive community impact.”
The McColl Center provides residencies to approximately 11 artists a year. Galleries are open to the public with free admission, and the McColl Center hosts open house events, lectures and panels, workshops, summer camps, and other public programs.
“With the core value that artists and art are catalysts for change, we believe that the work of artists can advance conversations around important contemporary issues. The organization has established strong community partnerships to engage artists in those conversations.”
