Great Aunt Stella Center

The Great Aunt Stella Center is Charlotte’s alternative performing arts, cultural, and community gathering place. In the shadows of the Uptown skyscrapers, the Center is a flexible venue with an eclectic personality. Businesses and non-profit groups have found the space ideal for seminars, meetings, networking events, and conferences as large as 400 people. The acoustically sensitive Sanctuary is ideal for concerts, literary readings, and drama. In addition, the Board Room and Café each offer a special ambiance to compliment the focus and content of any occasion. The unique circular sanctuary wraps young lovers in a welcoming, memorable space. The light filtering through the century-old Italian stained-glass shimmers on families and friends. The Great Aunt Stella Center has witnessed hundreds of brides coming down the aisle, seen parents wipe away tears of joy, smiled at nervous grooms fidgeting at the altar, and watched festive receptions. The venue is conveniently located less than three minutes from Charlotte’s Center City and close to all Uptown hotels. There is plenty of free convenient parking available. The Center is also non-denominational which means there are no restrictions on the type of ceremony, music, photography, and videography.
