Welcome to the Cabarrus Art Guild

The mission of the Cabarrus Art Guild is to bring together artists and art enthusiasts from Cabarrus and surrounding counties for art education, to share information about art, and exposure to original works of art.  We do this through our various programs, events, talks and classes.  Our various programs are open to all, whether you are an amateur or professional, if you dabble or sell your work.  We welcome you to join the Cabarrus Art Guild and share in our common interests and the wonder of creativity.   

The Cabarrus Art Guild is happy to announce:

Annual Spring Judged Art Show 2025 Results

What a phenomenal show we have to share with you, on display through June 27th at the beautiful ClearWater Arts Center & Studios 223 Crowell Street NW, Concord (Use main entrance on Crowell Street).  

We had 72 entries of beautiful and engaging 2D and 3D artworks represented, and they are as amazing as they are diverse in creativity and vision.  We are so fortunate to have such local talent, and are proud to share the show with you, and some images of the winning pieces, as well as all of the artwork, here on the site.  Please do go by ClearWater and see these pieces for yourself if you're able - many are available for purchase, and photos don't always do justice to the detail and workmanship of the piece the way that being in the presence can give.  

A huge thanks to all of the artists, their supportive friends and families, Cabarrus Art Guild volunteers, ClearWater Art Center & Studios, and our Guests, who made our show and opening reception one of our best yet!

Cabarrus Art Guild Partnering with

Cabarrus Boys and Girls Club

The Cabarrus Art Guild is delighted to announce that we are working with the Boys and Girls Club of Cabarrus County to provide instruction in creativity and art.

We have volunteer opportunities for those interested in reaching out and expanding the world of art to the young people of our community. The Guild will arrange to have instructors set up after school classes at the Boys and Girls Club facility in Concord.  Classes can be 45 minutes or longer in length. All grade levels, K-12 are in need of opportunities.

The Guild will provide a small financial stipend for materials or time, if requested. 

This new outreach program has just begun in 2024, and we have already conducted some terrific art sessions.

For more details, please contact the guild at cabarrusartguild@gmail.com. Please consider this a chance to make a difference in a child’s life. Giving your time and creative talent will make a big difference in the lives of these children (and make you feel pretty great too!).
