Dare County Arts Council Gallery
A nonprofit fine arts gallery housed in the historic 1904 Dare County Courthouse in downtown Manteo, featuring rotating exhibits of local paintings, pottery, jewelry, glass, and fiber art. Monthly First Friday receptions bring live music and light refreshments. There's even an Art-O-Mat — a vending machine that dispenses original art. Free to visit, genuinely worth exploring, and a real showcase of the local creative community.
