Welcome to the community driven art gallery located in the north end of downtown Raleigh.
In March of 2011, The Mordecai Citizens Advisory Council and the Chelsea Realty Group partnered to develop a community project to provide a face lift to the outside of the old barber store located on North Person Street.
This winter, we hope to launch the Barbershop "Window" Art Gallery. The Art Gallery will be completely driven by community volunteers with the goal to provide beautiful art to the Person Street Business District. Large interior showcase boxes were constructed, so hanging and 3D art could be admired through the windows. Solar generated lights will provide a glow of light. Art work will be changed out every two months if art donations and volunteer resources allow.
