NC Symphony to open CFCC Humanities and Fine Arts Center

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — The North Carolina Symphony will headline the opening this fall for Cape Fear Community College’s newest building.

The symphony will perform as part of the opening gala event for the college’s Humanities and Fine Arts early Oct. 3. The performance will also feature a guest performer, who will be announced later this year when tickets go on sale.

The opening gala will kick off a week-long schedule of events to introduce the new venue to the public.

Work continues on the 159,000 sq. ft. facility on N. 3rd Street in downtown Wilmington. When completed, the center will house a 1,500-1,600 seat performance venue to host Broadway touring productions, concerts, symphonic performances, recitals, symposiums and other events, as well as educational space for CFCC’s Humanities and Fine Arts Department.
