Since 1962, the High Point Arts Council has proudly served the greater High Point community by championing the arts through programs, partnerships, resources, and advocacy. Located in the historic Centennial Station Arts Center in downtown High Point, we are a vibrant hub for creativity, education, and community engagement, with an unwavering commitment to making the arts accessible to all.

Our signature initiatives include the John Coltrane Jazz Workshop for students, the free SummerSounds Concert Series, the Artful Business Cohort, Creative Space Access, and ROOTED, our neighborhood artist-in-residence program, alongside community-led groups like the Pullman Poet’s Society, Songwriters Circle, and the Titan Civic Band. Together, these programs reflect our dedication to fostering inclusive, enriching artistic experiences.

We believe the arts are essential to a thriving community enhancing culture, education, economic and tourism vitality, and quality of life. Our work aligns with the City of High Point’s vision of an inclusive, entrepreneurial, creative and connected community. We believe the arts are essential to a high quality of life and provide powerful outlets for expression, connect us to our shared humanity, and inspire joy and creativity.

Looking ahead, we remain committed to sustainability, innovation, and impact ensuring the arts continue to flourish in High Point. With the continued support of our community, the Arts Council strives to nurture, promote, and amplify the arts. Together, we are building a stronger, more vibrant community where people can live, work, and play—and where the arts continue to flourish. With your support, we will keep nurturing creativity, strengthening community, and celebrating the power of the arts for all.
