Parr Arts & Humanities Series

The Parr Arts & Humanities series is a new annual series that brings renowned authors, artists, and performers to Central Piedmont for the benefit of our students and the Charlotte community. Our goal is to offer the finest series of its kind in the region, to stimulate thought and dialogue, and to further an appreciation for the importance of the arts and humanities to society.

Over the course of each academic year, the series will feature three or four presentations that provoke interesting conversations, provide opportunities for student and community engagement, and explore relevant and timely topics.

The performances will fall into one of the following categories: civic engagement and philosophy, performing arts, literary and visual arts, or history and religion.

All events will take place in the theater in the Parr Center. This state-of-the-art theater seats 450 and includes a full orchestra acoustic shell, dance floor, and video conferencing/streaming capabilities.
