Step into a world where creativity knows no boundaries! McGuffey CoCreate is an immersive, hands-on artistic experience that invites the community to collaborate with over 20 artists in the heart of McGuffey Art Center. For one special day, all studios will be open, transforming into vibrant spaces of shared creation. From woodworking to dance, collage to assemblage, and so much more, this event celebrates the power of co-creation. Visitors of all ages and skill levels are encouraged to jump in—whether it’s adding a brushstroke to a collective painting, piecing together a collage, shaping wood with an artist’s guidance, or moving in rhythm with a live dance workshop.
This year, we’re adding some extra rhythm to the mix with Charlottesville Tango:
- Taster class (2–3pm): We’ll be offering a sneak peek into the world of Argentine Tango! Expect a warm and welcoming atmosphere, engaging demonstrations, and an introduction to the fundamental steps that make tango so captivating. No experience and no partner required—just bring your enthusiasm and a love for movement!
- Social dancing/practice (3–3:45pm): Whether you're a new or seasoned dancer, come and connect! You can practice what you've learned during the taster class, dance socially, watch the dancers, or just hang out and enjoy the music.
No experience? No problem! Supplies are provided, and our artists are ready to collaborate, guide, and inspire. Whether you come to create, connect, or simply witness the magic of artistic collaboration, McGuffey CoCreate is a space where art and community come alive together.
Join us and be part of something bigger—because art is not just made, it is shared.
