VAPA is a non-profit organization formed in 2021 by ten arts organizations in Charlotte to create a space for artists to create, perform, and exhibit their work.
The space, the VAPA Center, opened at 700 N. Tryon Street, Charlotte, in March of 2022.
The VAPA Center is hosting a wide range of arts events. You can find them listed on their website or Facebook page.
