I love getting to visit the art center. Was able to stop in today before going to the Monet experience and show a friend around. Both of us loved the artist studio spaces, being able to see them work as well as all of the local artisans work on display throughout. The exhibit that changes monthly and they offer classes as well, which I definitely want to check out and see if I can't get into one of those Here's a little parking lot right in between that they share with prosperity, kitchen and pantry

Talented artists who work in many mediums. The Art Center hosts new art exhibitions every first Friday of each month. Come in and visit all the beautiful art available.

I joined one of the 8 session pottery classes, and I am so happy I did. The instructor was super helpful, and had great suggestions on how to improve my technique. I am new to pottery, but no one made me feel like I couldn't catch on. Everyone was so supportive, and had nothing but positive things to say about my *ahem* abstract pieces (they're so bad, but they're mine). The price for the classes is equivalent to or less expensive than other local studios.

The Virginia Beach arts center is THE place for anyone who wishes to purchase local art and take an art or pottery class. It is a 901(c)3, nonprofit organization, established to support local art through community programs, classes, and monthly exhibitions that are all open to the public. Support VBAC in anyway you can; we all need good art to brighten our lives.

This wonderful art center showcases a rich and diverse variety of art. The Artist Gallery at the front has a new exhibit each month! The Pottery is an amazing space with all the equipment any potter would need. Classes of all levels are offered for both The Pottery and The Artist Gallery. Check it out! A great experience and a remarkable place in the Virginia Beach Vibe District!
