About Cary Gallery of Artists
The Cary Gallery of Artists is a cooperative operated by local artists. We feature contemporary and traditional fine art and craft, with more than 300 artworks exhibited by 20+ artists from around the Triangle. An artist is on duty, so stop by during regular business hours. Displays change monthly, just before our "Final Friday' evening reception, so there is always new work to enjoy when you visit.
Since our founding in 2005, Cary Gallery has offered affordable, high-quality original artwork. Our wide array of pieces includes jewelry, ceramics, paintings, wood, glass, and much more. Many of the artists who call our gallery "home" are well known—teaching, exhibiting, winning awards, and appearing frequently in the press.
A great time to visit is during Cary's Final Friday Art Loop. The last Friday of each month we are open until 8 pm to feature special showings by member artists. Join the fun at these celebrations—we always offer great conversation and goodies, and occasionally live music. Come out and meet the artists, and bring your friends and family!

Chip Freund became a member of the Cary Gallery of Artists in September, 2021. The prints shown below are currently on display and available for purchase through the gallery. It is an honor to be included among so many talented artists. I encourage everyone in the Triangle to spend a day in downtown Cary. Take a break and explore the wonderful shops, galleries, and museums in this charming town. Once you’ve had your fill of shopping, art, and history, take a load off and tip a pint at one of the local brew pubs, or grab a bite at one of Cary’s fabulous eateries.

Cary Photographic Artists 3rd Annual Open Juried Exhibition
Exhibition opens May 7, 2023
Cary Photographic Artists, founded in 2007 by Bobbi Hopp, is the Triangle’s only group whose mission it is to develop and enhance the practice of photographic art. As an artist/photographer, she was aware that photography wasn’t being accepted on equal footing with paintings and other visual art forms. Bobbi created the Cary Photographic Artist Annual Open Juried Show, inviting members from the Triangle and surrounds to submit their best images for an exhibition. The club has continued this tradition and we are proud to display the invited images below from 2017 - 2021.
This is my first year in the CPA exhibition and I am honored to be included among so many exceptionally gifted photographic artists. My work selected by the jury is Lake Mattamuskeet Trees. To learn more about the making of this unique photograph, check out the Image Story.

CFP is honored to be included in The 43rd Annual Frank Stick Memorial Art Show now open at the Dare County Art Council Gallery.
About The Frank Stick Memorial Art Show
The annual show is held in memory of Outer Banks preservationist and artist Frank Stick, who was instrumental in having miles of the Cape Hatteras Seashore designated as the first National Seashore.
The work included in the show is, “Corolla Sunset”. It captures one of the Outer Banks’ stunning sunsets over Currituck Sound. This little cove along highway 12 in Corolla, NC drew me in as I drove by it. My interest and patience waiting for the sun to set and light to come paid off. This limited edition print is presented in the show in a 16” x 16” black wood frame and is available for $200.00.
