What is the Apex 150th Celebration?
On February 28, 1873, the NC General Assembly passed the Act to Incorporate the Town of Apex. In 2023, we celebrate 150 years of history, learning, growing, and becoming the community our residents, businesses, and visitors deserve.
The year-long celebration creates multiple ways for everyone to get involved. Each activity and story told aim at one goal – to create pride for those who call Apex home.
The Town of Apex is organizing the celebration year in partnership with businesses, organizations, and community members of all ages and backgrounds.
Community members and visitors are invited to join the celebration though our Ways to Celebrate.
