We visited the Free Expression Tunnel after my daughter's learned about it on a campus tour. It is…read morereally something to see. While there's a good mix of trash talk, there's also some lovely sentiments and fine graffiti art. Since it is always changing, I think it's worth visiting often. While there I kept thinking that maybe the next Banksy will appear here. Tips: The entrance to the Free Expression Tunnel is located at 2620 Yarbrough Dr., Raleigh (for GPS). On the weekend there seems to be plenty of public parking at the entrance There were two random cans of spray paint when we went. The tunnel is inspiring, so we'll definitely bring spray paint next time, and leave it behind for others.

My husband and I recently visited Gallery C for a date night, and it was one of the highlights of…read moreour evening. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed by a staff member who was incredibly knowledgeable about both the gallery and the artwork on display. He took the time to share the stories behind several pieces and even invited us to stay for an upcoming artist talk later that evening. Unfortunately, we already had plans, but we'll definitely make it a priority next time. During our visit, Gallery C was featuring "Black Mountain College: Avant-Garde Art from the Experimental School, 1933-1957," an incredible exhibition showcasing works inspired by one of the most influential experimental art schools in American history. The collection offers a fascinating look at the artists, ideas, and creative spirit that emerged from Black Mountain College, making it a must-see for anyone who appreciates modern art and art history. The gallery itself is beautifully curated, spotless, and inviting. It truly feels like one of Raleigh's hidden gems. Whether you're an experienced collector or simply looking for a unique way to spend an afternoon, Gallery C is absolutely worth a visit. Parking was easy with street parking available directly in front of the gallery, along with a small parking lot nearby. We're so glad we discovered Gallery C and are already looking forward to returning for another exhibition and hopefully an artist talk next time.

The classes are taught at the owner/instructor's home with a few different themes offered during each track out (birdhouses, mermaids, flower collage, Fashion Face Fridays, how to draw dogs/cats, and others). She also does kids' birthday parties where the kids paint something fun to take home with them, and she just added some summer camps to the calendar that we're looking forward to! Karen, the owner/instructor is patient and offers a relaxing, fun environment and Abby really likes the tweeny pop music playing quietly in the background! The prices for classes are very reasonable & I love that she comes home with her very own piece of art we can hang proudly on the wall!

I hired her to develop a logo and branding for my small consulting practice. I spent 11 years working in the creative department of a major modern and contemporary art museum, and I'm extremely picky and particular, and Meredith was unbelievably patient, responsive, and attuned to what I was going for. She was professional, organized, communicative, and meticulous. She went far above and beyond the call of duty and did not stop until the logo was exactly what I wanted. I am absolutely thrilled with the final product, and I will not hesitate to work with her again on future projects.

Fast forward a few years and I actually do have a business to brand and I reached out to her. I was literally giddy. After working with her to develop my branding, I remain giddy. I am a frugal person by nature, and we all know how you sometimes need to pull up the bootstraps at the beginning. This has been the biggest personal investment I have made in my small business and I couldn't be happier. The logo and branding information she developed has made me feel more confident about how I am presenting my fledgling business to the world. It will probably always be the best money I have spent. I was a design newbie and her questionnaires and follow up questions were exceptionally helpful in uncovering my aesthetic and focusing my branding. She was a pleasure to work with and I keep telling all of my friends who need branding help to work with Meredith. Her artistic skill is one thing, but her ability to help you realize your vision is what sets her apart. Stop reading and just reach out to her. You can come back to Yelp and thank everyone later. ;)
