Deserted when we stopped in on a spring weekend afternoon. Not a single studio open (except for one hosting a class for kids), nor an artist in sight. The only artwork we were able to view was in the hallway and in the tiny gift shop. Very disappointing.

As a kid, my high school teacher brought my class to her studio here, and we made some ink prints. I fell in love with McGufdey and have returned often to take in local artists' work. Just go in and walk the halls. You never know who's studio will be open or the art you'll encounter. I can't recommend it more!

I came here all the way from harrisonburg Virginia, to see a sign on the door saying they were closed after 3:00. They did not have this on the website and this was very frustrating and confusing.

Really appreciate the staff and artist who sustain and create this space. Saw their "Día de Muertos" exhibit where local artist created displays honoring loved ones they have lost. Very touching and creative.

If you live in the Charlottesville are or are just visiting, a visit to the McGuffy Art Center is definitely in order. The art displays are varied and wonderful and rooms are often open to see what art is being created in each studio. You will see medium that is truly unique and amazing. Art is available for purchase as well.

You have to bear in mind that Charlottesville is a small place so this is not the kind of museum you would find in New York or DC. That being said, there are great local artists and lots of awesome things going on.

Every town needs a place like this and it's great that this one provides so much for the community and is so central to downtown.

My buddy blows glass in his studio ,in the basement of this place. He does really great work and at holiday times you can choose your own colors and blow ya own glass with a fresh new mouth piece. Its a lot of history and stuff to observe in this museum/art center. If you love art come enjoy.

This is a fun place to visit. We enjoyed the current art displays as well as active studios. Working artists are creating; many have open studios and will answer questions. The displayed art rotates, so we'll be going back soon.

I could wander through this center all weekend!!! Such a treasure in downtown Charlottesville!! Contains numerous studios for local artists to rent and display their incredible work!! The hallways are rustic and charming while also displaying beautiful and thought-provoking artwork on its walls. Natural light streams in through the stunning stairwell windows. The artists are kind and informative. Can't wait to go back soon!!
