Carolina Artist Gallery

Description

Carolina Artist Gallery is a free walk-in co-op gallery inside the Arts Council of Carteret County Arts Center in Morehead City. Local artists show paintings, sculpture, and other work in rotating exhibits, and the gallery is often a child's first stop in a real art space. Families can browse at their own pace through a steady mix of styles and media from established and emerging Carteret County makers.

The co-op has been part of the community for more than two decades and now shares the Arts Center with Arts Council programs. When kids want a hands-on follow-up after looking at the walls, the Arts Council offers classes and workshops for school-age children as well as adults. It makes an easy indoor break on a hot or rainy afternoon downtown, with room to wander and talk about what everyone likes without needing a timed ticket.
