Contemporary Art Museum of Raleigh (CAM Raleigh) is a multimedia contemporary art gallery in the Warehouse District of Raleigh, North Carolina. CAM Raleigh has no permanent collection but offers exhibitions of works by artists with regional, national, and international recognition. [1]

Since 2011, CAM Raleigh has operated in its renovated downtown warehouse space. The museum is notable for not maintaining a permanent collection, focusing instead on rotating exhibitions of regional, national, and international contemporary artists. Since 2011, CAM Raleigh has been housed in a 1910 warehouse in downtown Raleigh providing 20,000 square feet of space. [2] [3] The facility was re-purposed by Brooks + Scarpa. [4] [5]

Exhibitions have included works by Angel Otero, Marilyn Minter, Heather Gordon, Leonardo Drew, Sarah Cain, Dorian Lynde [6] and Jonathan Horowitz.

On June 3, 2025, CAM Raleigh announced via its homepage that as of June 15 it would temporarily pause on-site exhibitions and in-house programming to reassess its future. External collaborations and community partnerships remain active.
