About this venue
Artspace is home to 30 artist studios, 3 rotating gallery spaces, classes for youth and adults - and is an unforgettable venue for your wedding. Located in the historic cobble-stone lined streets of City Market, the building was originally constructed in 1911 as the City of Raleigh's livery stables. In the 1950s it became the Ford Sander's Auto Dealership. Artspace renovated the building in 1986 to be an innovative hub for creative expression in the heart of our state's capital. Today, Artspace welcomes 30,000 visitors annually through First Friday art walks, Family Days, Summer Art Camps and more. By booking your wedding at Artspace, you support our non-profit mission to inspire positive community impact through art.
