The NC Artists Exhibition returns to CAM Raleigh for the public to enjoy from October 2 to November 9, 2025.

For more than 50 years, this exhibition has celebrated the creativity and talent of thousands of North Carolina artists, bringing their work to the heart of our community.

We are honored to host this year's exhibition with free admission from October 2 to November 9. 💛

SAN IGNACIO STREET

"The public often asks about the title of my work or what the work means, and I always say that it's not descriptive, that I work with emotions.

You may start with an idea, but it is impossible to express abstract things that people can fully understand.

I'm talking about the realm of inner emotions rather than the field of rationality."

- Rigoberto Mena

WELCOMING RIGOBERTO MENA

As one of Cuba’s most renowned abstractionists, Rigoberto Mena (Artemisa, Cuba, 1961) draws inspiration from his home’s urban landscapes and the spirit of Cuba and its people.

Step into the emotional topography of Cuba as seen through the eyes of acclaimed abstract expressionist Rigoberto Mena.

In Rigoberto Mena: Skin of the City, Mena draws inspiration from his homeland’s urban landscapes and vibrant spirit, peeling back its surface to reveal raw textures, rhythmic chaos, and quiet resilience.

Rigoberto Mena: Skin of the City opens May 15th and is on display until August 10, 2025.

Stop by CAM Thursday-Sunday – it’s FREE to visit!
