After months of transformation, the doors of the new and improved Centennial Station Arts Center are opening wide for a night unlike any other, an evening where creativity swirls, culturesconverge, masks conceal and reveal, and the entire community comes together to celebrate the arts that shape our city.
Welcome to Arti Gras: A Black and White Extravaganza the High Point Arts Council’s annual fundraising and grand reopening event, where the building itself becomes part of the story. Once
a historic rail station, now a renewed artistic hub, Centennial Station has been reborn. And on this night, it becomes the stage for an unforgettable masquerade of imagination.
Guests will be swept into a multi-cultural celebration filled with artistic surprises at every turn with live performers igniting the space with music, movement, and color; visual art installations
that transform familiar corners into something entirely new; and interactive moments that invite everyone to play a role in the unfolding narrative of High Point’s creative future.
This is not just a party. It’s a community-centric extravaganza, a night of joy, elegance, and expression that honors the people and stories behind our vibrant arts scene. Arti Gras becomes a transitional story of its own, celebrating where we’ve been, and boldly stepping into what’s next.
Proceeds from Arti Gras support the HPAC Arts Fund, sustaining programs, artists, and creative opportunities across our community.
Join us for an evening where art comes alive, where every moment feels like magic, and where together we celebrate the spectacular rebirth of a place built for creativity.
Arti Gras: A Black and White Extravaganza
A night to celebrate. A night to support. A night to remember.
