Our Story
Brick Row is a creative flex-space located in the heart of Old Town Cornelius in the town’s last remaining Cotton Mill, Oak Street Mill. Uniquely situated in the town’s budding new arts district, the venue captures the character and charm of Cornelius’ past while serving as a cultural and creative hub for community to gather present day.
A Creative Hub
Welcome to Brick Row
Where Culture & Community Meet
Brick Row was created out of a need for a space for community to gather in the heart of Lake Norman’s emerging “cultural arts destination”—Old Town Cornelius (OTC). The venue originally began as a headquarters for Bella Love Inc., an arts & entertainment community development company, the host of many of the area’s largest festivals and events. After realizing the opportunity to become a “flex-space” for other events and ideas outside of their own, Bella Love started the process of renovating Brick Row to what it is today—a “creative space with walls that talk.”
Brick Row is now home to a variety of regular community events from comedy shows and arts workshops, to private events such as corporate gatherings, holiday parties, lunch & learns, and more. It is also a destination at events such as the ‘Tawba Walk, 2nd Friday Street Festival and other festivals held at Oak Street Mill, offering additional gathering space, refreshments, seating and live entertainment.
