Urban Artists Exchange Amphitheater

The Urban Artists Exchange (UAE) -- is an arts-based community development center that engages and employs young urban artists by offering hands-on education initiatives. Phase 1 of the project involved the conversion of the decades-long abandoned Wilmington Police Department horse stables into eight art-creation and teaching studios, and a group exhibition/gathering area. Phase 2 includes an open-seat amphitheater with an integrated wastewater management system, an outdoor public art exhibition, and environmentally sustainable landscaping. Preservative-treated glulam, cypress screening, and hot-dip galvanized steel ensure lasting performance.
