The Creative Art Exchange is a not-for-profit organization that inspires creative exploration and builds community through the arts in North Mecklenburg. Formerly known as the Icehouse Center in Davidson, the Creative Art Exchange has recently opened in the Oak Street Mill location (behind the police station) in Cornelius. The center offers class opportunities in ceramics, digital photography, painting, print making, and drawing. Special workshops are offered as well as children’s programs, including a children’s summer camp experience. The new location features a large gallery area for display of varied art subjects and artists. The program on April 9 will provide
an overview of the organization and discuss what is included
in classes that are offered in the arts. The Grand
Opening for the new location is scheduled for April 20,
so the Discussion Group will provide a fun kick-off for residents
in New Neighborhood who will want to take the opportunity to
learn more and possibly re-kindle artistic talents in one of
the many classes. Some residents may also find an interest
in signing up as a volunteer.
