Welcome to LabourLove - The little art gallery that could...

Don't expect to find stuffy, art aficionados looking down their noses with a sense of self importance during your visit to LabourLove Gallery. We just love the creative process from conception to completion. Come visit us just to sit on our art inspired reupholstered furniture, and chat while surrounded by some of the most talented young artists in North Carolina. Be prepared to be tempted by our limited edition fine art prints, clothing, and home goods. Be ready for artwork that will make you stop and wonder why you don't spend more time in east Durham. Need customized wedding invitations, holiday cards, or stationary? We'll design them just for you. We even provide art lessons for children. Durham's favorite art gallery cannot be truly enjoyed from the comfort of your Internet connection, but if you insist we've tried to capture it for you here at www.labourlove.com.

Third Friday at LabourLove – August

Enjoy the festivities at Golden Belt tomorrow night!

Kelly Dew

Owner, Kelly Dew, is showing her collection of figurative work during August. The work goes from very personal pieces with her relationship with her mother to a light hearted take on sexual tension. Three limited edition prints and t-shirt designs were created from the series, and are for sale in the gallery.
