Explore the ViBe Creative District with Darley Newman as she visits Virginia Beach, Virginia, alongside local artists and Kate Pittman, Executive Director of the ViBe Creative District. This creative neighborhood is a hub for small businesses, handmade goods, coffee culture, and local art.

Darley begins at Three Ships Coffee in The Alley, a standout local café known for expertly crafted espresso. Right next door, Darley explores Artisans at Work in The Alley, including Igor’s Customs, North End Bag Co., and Jars of Dust.

Darley also visits the gallery space featuring a solo show, "Birds of a Feather" by Virginia Beach artist Lynette Harris, as well as other studio artists and working creatives in the district.

Food and drink are central to the ViBe experience, with stops at Three Ships Coffee and scratch-made baked goods from Prosperity Kitchen & Pantry, all highlighting the neighborhood’s local flavor.

Kate Pittman shares how the ViBe Creative District celebrates 10 years of creative placemaking, small business entrepreneurship, and neighborhood revitalization. From murals to makers, coffee to community, the ViBe Creative District showcases the heart of Virginia Beach creativity.
