Enhancing the region’s economic development, education, and quality of life by providing a free home to seven of the region’s most important cultural organizations.
The Western Virginia Foundation for the Arts and Sciences is independent, private, and non-profit, and owns and operates four downtown Roanoke properties: Center in the Square, Center on Church, the former Shenandoah Hotel, and the former downtown Norfolk & Western Railway Passenger Station.
Our signature facility, Center in the Square, opened December 9, 1983, culminating a community dream begun in 1977 to revitalize a decaying downtown and boost the arts through a downtown cultural center.
Center in the Square is home to seven independent cultural organizations:
Art Museum of Western Virginia, History Museum & Historical Society of Western Virginia, Mill Mountain Theatre, Science Museum of Western Virginia, and The Arts Council of the Blue Ridge. Center pays the rent for Opera Roanoke and Roanoke Ballet Theatre, Inc. at Jefferson Center.
The home Center provides is free – these organizations pay no rent.
Center provides free utilities, maintenance, custodial and security services to the organizations, a value estimated at $2.5 million. These services provided by Center represent approximately 30% of the organizations operating budgets. Center in the Square relies primarily on financial support from the local community to provide these services.
