Moss Arts Center
The arts matter. Help us make a difference.

The Moss Arts Center has been bringing meaningful arts experiences – performances and exhibitions featuring professional artists from around the globe, and engagement activities connecting students and community members with artists – to Southwest Virginia since 2013. 

The arts have a profound impact on people’s lives. Join us in making a difference.

At the Moss Arts Center, we create connection and community, fostering a sense of shared humanity and helping people better understand and support each other. We inspire young people – participation in the arts is linked to higher academic achievement, and it also encourages creativity, collaboration, and confidence. And we share diverse voices and perspectives that introduce new cultures and new ways to see the world.

Your support will help us continue this work.

All Giving Day donations to the Moss Arts Center will be recognized in the 2025-2026 season Moss Arts Center performance programs.
