our story,
a short video ...............  

   History

​     In 1999, a group of five women who met in a watercolor class began to meet regularly to paint.  They dreamed of having a place where artists could meet, show their work, hold classes and promote the arts in this coastal community.  

        Pooling their talents and money, they rented space in Morehead City and the dream became a reality.  In 2019 the gallery relocated to its present location at 814 Arendell St., Morehead City, NC.

       Today, the co-op continues to nurture emerging artists, giving them an opportunity to show and sell their work in our professional gallery space. The Gallery enjoys a steady stream of visitors.  Vacationers and local residents purchase art and gifts.  Nonmember artists frequently stop in for inspiration.  ​

In 2020, because of the COVID-19 virus, the gallery is adding on-line shopping for gallery items.  In-gallery shopping and store pickup continue during gallery hours and by appointment. Please contact the gallery by email and phone for an appointment, as store hours are limited at this time to Friday and Saturday from 11-5.

 Community Outreach 
   
   As a 501 c3 non-profit,  the co-op maintains a community outreach component; “Bringing  art to life, and life to art.” 
   We have for many years offered clay art classes for Special needs adults.  Now we offer classes to adults and school age children as well as offering exhibiting opportunities to high school students.
