Excellent idea! Artist co-op. Art is for sale. Most rooms were closed. Arts of every imaginable medium. Would probably be much better if there were an actual event.

I’m an art educator from Georgia. Walking through this art center was quite inspiring. The smell of material, sight of artists of all ages, and so many types of art!

A great space both for viewing finished art and art in process, and for talking informally with artists. Three full floors of really varied and creative works in multiple media.
McGuffey Art Center, located one block from the Downtown Mall in a historical school building, is one of the oldest artist-run cooperative art centers in the country. The art center currently houses 48 renting artists with open studios and 6 incubator residency artists. The art center is open to the public to view monthly exhibitions which showcase works by artists in our association and within our greater Charlottesville community. McGuffey also hosts group tours, workshops, classes, summer art camps, and community events. To find out more about our artist community, check out our website.
