Visual Arts

Dare County Arts Council has numerous opportunities throughout the year for visual artists. We host many invitational shows, workshops, and classes, with different offerings each month. Check our Calendar and Workshop pages on this website for detailed information.

Visual Artists (and artists specializing in other areas!) have the opportunity to show and sell in our Gallery, which occupies the first floor of the Historic 1904 Dare County Courthouse - our new home in downtown Manteo, the town that is our county seat.

Contact Dare County Arts Council for specific information regarding opportunities for visual artists in Dare County.
