About Us
The Center for Visual Artists – Greensboro (CVA) is the merger of two long-standing Greensboro community visual arts agencies, The Center for Creative Arts (est. 1965) and the Greensboro Artists’ League (est. 1956). These organizations joined forces in 2005 to form a comprehensive art education center that strives to promote the advancement and development of visual art through education, exhibition opportunities and community outreach. Its purpose is exclusively educational and charitable.
EDUCATION
The CVA offers a broad range of visual art education programs that serve all ages. Whether you’re an experienced artist or a beginner, there is a class at the CVA that is right for you.
EXHIBITION
In addition to our education opportunities, the CVA also provides a venue for both emerging and established local artists to share their work with the Greensboro Community.
COMMUNITY SERVICE
The CVA strives to provide programming the enriches the lives of members in our community. Located in the Greensboro Cultural Center, our gallery is visable to its over 2 million annual visitors. Through our in-house and outreach programs we directly serve, on average, nearly 50,000 members of the Greensboro community. FUNDING
The CVA is a non-profit, 501(c) 3 and funded affiliate of the United Arts Council of Greater Greensboro. However, without the strong support of our members, volunteers, and the Greensboro community, our efforts would not be possible.
