North Carolina Arts Council Artist Fellowship 2017 Award Exhibition

Celebrating the state’s contemporary artists, the North Carolina Arts Council Fellowship 2017 Award Exhibition features work by seventeen artists from across North Carolina. Since the inception of the fellowship program in 1980, the Arts Council, now in service to NC for over 50 years, has given over 600 cash awards to North Carolina artists. This powerful and essential gesture gives both voice and encouragement to artists tasked with exploring the world and helping define our place in it.
