Flanders Gallery

If you thought the old Flanders Art Gallery was small, you might be a little shocked when you walk into the new space as you can walk in and walk out in one minute flat. However, they do keep with the traditional Flanders charm offering interesting, albeit even smaller, exhibits and free beer and wine during Raleigh’s First Fridays. Flanders is now located directly next to (or may actually be apart of) Lump Gallery, another tiny art gallery that I’d never heard of until Flanders relocated next door. I would recommend checking Flanders out during First Friday if you enjoy walking and are not by yourself, the particular area can look a little shady at night as it’s a bit removed from downtown. As long as I’ve been going to Flanders, I’ve always been impressed by the artwork displayed, and I wasn’t disappointed during their first exhibit in their new space. Imagine you walk into a balloon house and that’s exactly what Flanders delivered.
So, if you’re looking for a creative and sometimes unusual take on art, free wine or beer, a nice walk or just a tiny gallery, Flanders is a great choice for you!
