Contemporary Art Museum, Raleigh

Contemporary Art Museum of Raleigh (CAM Raleigh) is a multimedia contemporary art gallery in Raleigh, North Carolina. On June 3, 2025, CAM Raleigh announced that as of June 15 it would temporarily pause on-site exhibitions and in-house programming to reassess its future. External collaborations and community partnerships would remain active.[1] On August 3, 2026 CAM Raleigh announced it was selling its gallery location in the Warehouse District.[2] In use since 2011, the gallery was a 1910 warehouse providing 20,000 square feet of space.[3][4] The facility was re-purposed by Brooks + Scarpa.[5][6]

CAM Raleigh has no permanent collection but offers exhibitions of works by artists with regional, national, and international recognition.[7] Exhibitions have included works by Angel Otero, Marilyn Minter, Heather Gordon, Leonardo Drew, Sarah Cain, Dorian Lynde[8] and Jonathan Horowitz.

CAM Raleigh was founded in 1983 as the City Gallery of Contemporary Art and for a time was operated by the College of Design of North Carolina State University.[9]
