Embark on a fascinating journey through the skies and cosmos in the interactive aerospace exhibition Above and Beyond!
Above and Beyond celebrates the incredible innovations that have shaped flight – from the earliest dreams of the Wright brothers to today’s space exploration and tomorrow’s cutting-edge aviation technologies.
Explore the frontiers of air and space travel through immersive simulations, hands-on design challenges and dynamic storytelling that brings the history and future of aerospace to life. The journey begins in a wraparound immersive theater, then expands into five themed galleries featuring dozens of interactive stations.
Hosted in The Galleries at the Cabarrus Arts Council
Founded in 1970 by seven local artists, the Cabarrus Art Guild has grown to more than 100 members representing a wide range of mediums, from painting and sculpture to fiber arts, glass, and weaving. Based in the historic Clearwater Gallery and Studios, the Guild fosters creativity and community through workshops, demonstrations, and exhibitions. This show celebrates the diversity and talent of artists from Cabarrus and surrounding counties, inviting visitors to explore original works and connect with the thriving local arts scene.
