Welcome!
Community Artists Gallery & Studios, Inc.
A nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization

We're New Bern's premier space for local artists and artisans. Stop by and see an array of original, regional art. Painting, jewelry, pottery, fabric arts, photography, wood crafts, and more! All distinctive. All affordable. And, your purchase supports talented local artists.

As members of a cooperatively run "arts incubator" for our community, we believe in making fine art accessible to everyone! Each of our artists is also a volunteer, contributing their time and talents to the function of the gallery while enhancing their techniques, abilities, professionalism, and outreach. We aspired to bridge gaps between professionals and aspiring amateurs, and between artists and audiences. To that end, we participate in community-wide events and offer arts education programs, many free of charge.

Here's the latest.....

Our member artist Diane McKillop led a free "introduction to drawing" workshop for residents of Craven Terrace. This is just the first in a series of creative programs we're making available for this New Bern neighborhood.

This project was supported by the N.C. Arts Council, a division of the Department of Natural & Cultural Resources.
