Access to Space is Access to Opportunity

In the 2025-2026 fiscal year, more than 400 artists, organizations, and community partners accessed Creative Greensboro spaces through the Creative Activation Partners Program, Van Dyke Performance Space rentals, music studios, and creative residencies. Every rehearsal, meeting, recording session, class, and performance represents an opportunity to practice, create, produce, perform, and grow. When creative people access performance and practice space, they have greater access to opportunity.
