Nestled in the heart of Nelson County, the Rockfish Valley Community Center (RVCC) is more than just a building; it’s a place where connection, creativity, and community come to life.
We believe in the power of people coming together to learn, to grow, to celebrate, and to make a difference. From fitness and art classes to concerts, markets, and local events, RVCC is a space built by the community, for the community.
Here’s what you’ll find here:
Wellness & Movement — Yoga, Pilates, dance, and fitness classes to keep body and mind in balance.
Arts & Creativity — Local art exhibits, craft markets, and workshops that celebrate creativity in all its forms.
Events & Entertainment — Live music, festivals, and family-friendly gatherings that bring joy to every season.
Local Markets — Fresh produce, baked goods, handmade crafts, and the friendly faces that make Nelson County special.
Meeting & Rental Spaces — Affordable venues for your next event, class, or celebration.
RVCC thrives because of the people who show up, our members, volunteers, artists, vendors, and neighbors who make this a true community hub.
Whether you’re here to move, create, connect, or give back, you belong here.

We’ve heard a few ghost stories about the Knoll, and we’ve even had a few first hand experiences. Shockingly, we managed to capture all paranormal activity on camera (pictured). Happy Halloween! 🎃👻
