The Waterworks Visual Arts Center is Salisbury-Rowan's premier visual arts space located in the downtown Salisbury's emerging East Square Cultural District.
The mission of the Center is to offer an innovative program of exhibitions, education, and outreach that inspires and educates a regional audience to explore the evolution and forefront of contemporary art. Over 23,900 visitors, which includes 7,700 children and youth, participate annually in Waterworks events and programs.
In 1999 the Waterworks earned the distinction of national accreditation by the American Association of Museums (AAM). The Waterworks was founded as a nonprofit organization in 1959 as the Rowan Art Guild. It moved to its first home in the City of Salisbury’s original Waterworks plant in 1977 and moved into its current, state-of-the-art facility in January 2003. |
