YOUR IMPACT For children across West Virginia and throughout the region, the Clay Center is much more than just a place for fun and entertainment. With science and art exhibits, films, planetarium shows, performances, hands-on workshops and interactive demonstrations, the Clay Center is uniquely positioned to offer STEAM education. This intersection of the arts with the STEM fields of science, technology, engineering and math bridges the gap between artistic creativity and scientific innovation.

For 62 years, The Charleston Ballet has helped dancers develop valuable skills like teamwork, accountability and discipline of the mind and body by working with guest artists, master teachers and choreographers from around the world. In addition, thousands of children attend special student performances of the Ballet each year.

Since its inception, Carnaval patrons have raised over $1.2 million dollars. This is YOU!
