ImaginOn

ImaginOn is a center in Uptown Charlotte that brings theater and library services together for children and teenagers. The building houses two performance spaces, reading areas designed for different ages, classrooms, and media studios where young visitors can create their own work.

The center opened in 2005 after voters approved funding in 1999 to build this joint project. The creation came from a partnership between a local theater company and the city library system.

The facility brings together theater performances and library programs in spaces where young people gather to experience stories and develop their own creative work. You will find regular activities and events that involve visitors directly in artistic expression and exploration.

Visiting works best on weekends or school holidays when many programs and shows are scheduled. The Uptown location makes it easy to reach by public transportation or parking that is available nearby.

The center has specialized media rooms where young visitors can create their own digital content and work directly with production technology. This type of hands-on media creation is not common in most libraries and theater centers.
