Come see for yourself what's going on inside of our creative space and meet the artists that call BLAM! their creative home.

Inspiring Change


If you didn't know we were here, you might miss us...but here we are, tucked just under the Boylan Street Bridge, next to Rebus Works and we hope you can take time to come visit our studio space this fall and see for yourself what we've been up to this summer and fall!

We've cleaned up, shifted spaces and re-organized to make our wonderful space even more inviting to visitors and patrons.

Jules and Sys are all moved in and have been such a welcomed breath of fresh & positive creative energy!

We've all been working to create a more defined display area for our current work and re-arranging our workspaces to allow visitors to see not only our finished artwork, but also to glimpse into our process for making art.

Spring has sprung at BLAM!

There is just something about springtime that makes us want to change things up and rearrange, get rid of clutter, and start something new! And, this spring we are pleased to announce the addition of TWO new wonderful studio mates at BLAM!...Sys Oppenlander and Juley Striegel. Both are well loved NC abstract artists with ties to the Triangle. Over the next few weeks they will be settling into their new spaces and we are so excited to share our eclectic space with them! This winter, our longtime friends and fellow Blammers Stacey Kirby and Sarah Blackmon moved out of their creative nests at BLAM! and have resettled into new workspaces. You can find Stacey at the Cargo Collective in Durham (http://cargocollective.com/staceykirby) and Sarah is busy shaking things up at the new CAM in downtown Raleigh! We have all shifted spaces, which has provided a much needed excuse for cleaning and purging all sorts of junk (both the mental and physical kind.)

Please be sure to check out Sys and Jules' websites to get a better look at their beautiful and inspiring work!

And, check back soon for updates for upcoming open house dates and studio events in 2012.
