About
BLUME STUDIOS
Located in the newly announced Iron District, Blume Studios aims to continue the illustrious legacy of Charlotte Pipe and Foundry, which was home to talented and hardworking craftsmen on the same site for over a century.
With everything from international immersive experiences to multi-media events and shows produced right here in Charlotte, a new generation of creative workers will make Blume Studios a nationally acclaimed destination where every show is different and every visit unique.
BLUMENTHAL ARTS
Blumenthal Arts serves the Carolinas as a leading cultural, entertainment, and education not-for-profit. Blumenthal Arts receives support from the City of Charlotte Arts Fund and the North Carolina Arts Council. Generous support is also provided by PNC Bank, sponsor of the PNC Broadway Lights series, and Equitable, sponsor of the Equitable Bravo Series.
THE IRON DISTRICT
The Iron District is a 55.5-acre area straddling Charlotte’s dynamic Uptown and South End neighborhoods. The land served as home to 122-year-old, family-owned Charlotte Pipe and Foundry’s cast-iron foundry for more than a century, and in 2023 the company relocated operations to a new state-of-the-art facility in Oakboro, North Carolina. The Iron District seeks to recognize the land’s industrious past and, with anchor tenant Blumenthal Arts’ Blume Studios and endless possibilities for the property, cast a promising future.
