Festival season is in full swing, but if you’re looking for a tad more artistic gravitas this weekend, stop by the UNC Charlotte Center City Building for its Open House and Community Day on Sept. 17.
Although the gleaming new Uptown campus is home to myriad programs in business, health and human services, urban design, urban education and continuing education, the light-flooded gallery, which has its own entrance on Ninth Street, is one of the more visible aspects of the building. I’ll be writing more about the gallery and its programming later, but let’s just say there are some parallels between it and Saturday’s family friendly goings-on.
