ART IS EVERY WHERE

We would love to have you see our show. Raleigh invites you to look a little closer. Beyond the gallery, art moves into the landscape—through sculpture, architecture, gardens and unexpected details waiting to be discovered on this trip.

EXPERIENCE RALEIGH

Lets go beyond together...

Take time to wander. Follow a trail through the woods, discover art in unexpected places, explore extraordinary museums and sculpture gardens, or simply find a quiet corner and enjoy the rhythm of the city.

However you choose to spend your time, make Raleigh part of the experience.

Bring your camera and your walking shoes. Take home memories from Raleigh and if you buy a painting from the show, Centerpiece can ship it to you.

We would LOVE to have you come see the 56th WAOW Annual Juried Show and enjoy Raleigh as well. We will see you there!
