Arts, Music & Museums

Charlotte's cultural infrastructure punches above its weight — and most of it sits within fifteen minutes of SouthPark.

The Museums

The Mint Museum operates two locations: Mint Museum Randolph (the original 1936 building, in the heart of Eastover near SouthPark) and Mint Museum Uptown. Together they hold one of the Southeast's strongest collections of American art, decorative arts, and contemporary craft.

The Bechtler Museum of Modern Art (Mario Botta-designed, opened 2010) anchors Uptown's Levine Center for the Arts alongside the Harvey B. Gantt Center for African-American Arts + Culture and Discovery Place Science.

Music & Performing Arts

The Charlotte Symphony's summer Pops series at Symphony Park (directly behind SouthPark Mall) is the quintessential SouthPark summer ritual — blankets, picnics, and Beethoven under the oaks.

Year-round performances at the Belk Theater, Knight Theater, and Booth Playhouse cover ballet, opera, Broadway tours, and the Charlotte Symphony's mainstage season.

Galleries & Studios

SOCO Gallery (Selwyn) and Hidell Brooks (Camp North End) are the area's most respected contemporary galleries. Crescent Communities' multiple mixed-use developments around SouthPark increasingly host public art installations through Charlotte's % for Art ordinance.
