The CoLab, at 14 Glenwood Avenue, Suite #17, Raleigh, North Carolina, is a supportive community of artists. CoLab holds many events, which you can find at thecolabraleigh.com.
Here’s one that’s coming up…
First Friday at CoLab
Friday, July 4, 2025
6 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Free
There’s a lot of emphasis put on the creative individual, but the truth is, nobody does it alone. Every artist cobbles together their style from countless influences, incorporating the techniques of other visionaries. From the old masters, to the folks in your community whose work we admire, no source of artistic inspiration is off limits. For the month of July, CoLab honors the practice of using imitation as a teacher, in a show called “mimicry”.
Also, while you’re at CoLab studio, paint on a collaborative painting.
There’s also the amazing Five Dollar Sketch Wall- a novel way to build your art collection (even if you’re broke) and help support CoLab at the same time, thanks to generous donations from the artists!
The Carter Building will be hopping Friday! While you’re here, visit CoLab’s awesome neighbors throughout the building!
Double-Check Before You Head Out!
