The Carrack

Artists and WritersNorth Carolina, United States2-10 Employees

The Carrack was a community art space committed to inclusivity and experimentation. We displayed all types of visual art, hosted a wide range of performances and events, and provided programming that builds connections between artists and audiences. 

We believe art is an invaluable asset – a resource for cultivating relationships, strengthening communities, and sparking political change. We seek a reimagined arts ecosystem: one that is accessible and collaborative, one that is unbounded by discipline, age, class, race, ability, gender or other identities. The Carrack proudly supports the work of creators who are underrepresented in the art world at large, including artists of color; queer and trans artists; and artists who are emerging, experimenting, or producing temporal and/or site-specific work.

All artists and organizers use The Carrack for free, have complete creative control over the presentation of their work, and keep 100% of what they make from sales if they choose to sell. We are entirely funded by grassroots donations and sustained by a team of volunteers. 

Since opening in Durham, NC in 2011, The Carrack has exhibited work by over 1,000 artists and hosted over 160 exhibitions and numerous performing arts events.
