Bringing artists, audiences, and ideas together.
Creating spaces where contemporary art inspires connection, sparks creativity, and fosters innovation.
Our Approach
Riverviews isn't just a gallery. It's a working creative space where exhibitions, studios, and hands-on learning happen under one roof. Our galleries are free and open to all — featuring contemporary work from emerging to internationally recognized artists. Our studios are home to working creatives who make art here every day. And our workshops invite the community in to learn, experiment, and create alongside practicing artists. This model is intentional. When you walk through our doors, you're not just viewing art — you're stepping into a place where it's actively being made. That energy shapes everything we do.
From a renovated warehouse to a thriving creative hub—Riverviews has been part of downtown Lynchburg's story for over two decades. We're proud of where we've been and energized by what's ahead.
We present exhibitions by emerging and internationally recognized artists, provide affordable studios for working creatives, and host programming that brings our community together. Whether it's a First Friday opening, a student exhibition, or a world-class show—this is where art and ideas meet.
For over 20 years, Riverviews Artspace has been the home for contemporary art in Central Virginia.
