“You could seriously spend all day here. It was amazing!! Huge museum. My boyfriend and i couldn’t believe it was free. So many hands on things, just so much to do and see. We loved the dueling dinosaurs and seeing them excavate the bones. along with the whole process. The sky bridge was nice to walk across. Just everything was great and all the staff and volunteers were so nice and informative. wasn’t super crowded either. If you can donate when you go please do. this is a great thing to support.”
“Beautiful landscape and a lovely studio. My pottery instructor was a bit shoddy as an instructor, but I think she is a good person overall. Her class was geared more so towards pinch mugs. The class size was too large for her and we did not review techniques such as utilizing colored slip, adding a foot, etc.. I've taken other pottery classes within the triangle area, so I have some ideas of how they typically go. What I like about this studio is the location, it's modern, the cost to take classes, and how fast our items are fired in the kiln. I would have appreciated more guidance on something I was interested in making. Overall, I recommend this studio!”
“311 Gallery is my happy place. I make sure to stop through whenever I'm in the general vicinity. It has a great collection, and I'm happy to see the pieces I'm familiar with as well as anything new. Art appreciators should make sure to stop by here, and it's just down the road from CAM, a great modern art museum, too!”
“It's been wonderful getting to know you. You're a talented artist and such a considerate and honest human being in conversation, your trade and independence show all the value you invest for yourself. It's always a pleasure coming to speak with you in your studio, with what we've both learned from our experiences in similar places and ways we evenly meet each other in our understandings, and I hope all the best for you and your art's preservation and support. I'll see you again the next time I can when I come downtown, Catherine, of course in your free time and when you want a visitor too. - Soledad”
“I've taken a variety of art that needed multiple different types and styles of framing to The Apex Gallery & Custom Framing. Everything has come back beautifully. Nick and Bethany are so very friendly and patient and worked with us until we found the exact right frames and mats. Will definitely be back.”
“I have many tattoos but I have never had one done as well as Chris can do! The more I look at it the more surprised I get at how well everything is done! I want him to finish my sleeve and will never have anyone else work on my sleeve! He is the most talented tattooist I have ever worked with and would highly recommend him to everyone!!! Chris I cannot thank you enough for making my dream tattoo come true!Services: Tattoo cover-ups & reworkings”
“Been using FrameWorks for years. They are great people who care about the product you are buying. I recently brought in a bit of a "weird" request and they were very happy to figure it out for me. Always happy to recommend Frameworks to whomever needs a frame shop.”
“This is a lovely and warm art showroom with helpful lovely staff interested in helping and sharing the art displayed! I participated in an art workshop there and absolutely loved the experience! Highly recommend you stop by and see what they have to offer!”
“One day I wandered into this shop which is not an ordinary gift shop. The owner curates some of the most beautiful and creative pieces of wearable and handmade art pieces, furniture and dishes. Come in and look around to be inspired or find an item you will treasure. The owner is a felter as well and her scarves, hats and other wearable pieces are exquisite. There are also classes here. Thank you!!!”
“Tim Johnson's Art of Fashion 2024 showcase contured designers locally and nationally. I am familiar with Lillian of Noshona Boutique because I patronize her clothes and jewelry from Tanzania. I prefer boutique designs because they are unique, and you don't have to concern yourself of 20 people with the same outfit as you. I love boldness and being unique which sets you apart!”
“My wife and I visited the store for the first time a few days ago and loved all the merchandise. All the artists on display are residents of NC, so buying from ArtSource helps the local area art community. Our sales associate Anne was kind and patient with us, and treated us with courtesy and professionalism. We walked out with several pieces at what I consider to be a fair price. The whole experience was so terrific, we actually went back days later and bought another piece. We highly recommend ArtSource Fine Art for your decorating needs!”
“I have bought four mugs and two vases from Cary Pottery years ago and use them daily for years to the point that I got rid of most of my other mugs purchased from stores. Today I visited them and their second location for the first time which is a little hidden but I wanted a couple of new mugs. I hate that their space is so much more limited but the quality of the pottery has not changed and the friendliness has remained as well. I absolutely love his work, I love how much care goes into the work, and I love the pricing. The pricing for me isn't just about affordability but making it where pottery is accessible to a larger amount of people and making it feel like these are items that you can use. The first time I ever met him was at an art event in downtown Raleigh and I will never forget how adamant he was that pottery wasn't made to sit on a shelf, it was made to be used. I love everything that I've purchased from him and hope to continue doing so in the future.”
