Housed within the North Carolina Wesleyan College campus, the Dunn Center for the Performing Arts is one of the educational institution's premier event venues. The performing arts center is an extremely versatile facility, thanks to the Minges Auditorium, Mims Gallery, Carlton Board Room, Intimate Powers Recital Hall, and the Garner Lobby that it houses within its walls. It also shelters the acclaimed Tar River Orchestra and Chorus.
