In business for 24 years as a 501c3, we are an incubator with strong outreach programs to the community.

our community have ever seen. Local artists collaborate improving their own art while learning about the art business. 814 Arendell St. Located on the corner of 9th and Arendell in Morehead City, North Carolina two blocks from the Intracoastal Waterway.

Early 2020 Shows and Past events -Wonderful time was had
by all!!!
Proud to have had this interesting show
Folly- Art for the Fun of it!!!!!
And the Winners are!!!!
Karen van Gamper as the Folly Director reports the notes from our Judge, as follows: Lou, from Arts and Things really took time and did an excellent job judging a complicated and complex group of entries in many different mediums. Her choice for First Place was Marguerite Juner for her watercolor "Net Gain". This was the beautiful mermaid in a gold frame. Next, she awarded Neil Stetson Second Place for his photograph "Floating Dock." I was really delighted that this unusual photograph was recognized. Lou chose Richard Von Hoorn's Assemblage "Man Smoking Pipe", certainly an unusual image, as Third place winner. Lorraine McElroy received an Honorable Mention for "Bloomin Folly". Her magnificent and complicated ceramic floral creation certainly deserved an award. And, finally, my own painting "Spirit Walker" received an Honorable Mention." Sincerely, Karen Van Gamper Thank you Lou arts-things.com

Parks and Recreation Campers
Still have some of these beautiful masks ready for pick up at Parks & Recreation Art Room
Morehead City Parks and Recreation Summer Campers & Carolina Artist Gallery
Mask Makers- 10-12 year old campers used ceramic clay and glazes to make colorful expressive masks that are on display in the gallery until August 25. Parents and family have been invited to a reception on that date, 12-4, in their child's honor. At that time the young artist can take their work home.
Treasure Hunt is an age appropriate way for children to look around the gallery methodically by using the icon on the page to find the actual piece of art. Writing down the information on the label brings them closer to understanding that what they are looking at is actually made by someone.
Carolina Artists Gallery invites any group to go on this "Treasure Hunt" simply by calling the gallery to arrange a time.
