Recent exhibits of note that have garnered accolades from critics and everyday art fans alike include Ocean Plastic, which focuses on the local waters and how ocean debris can harm its wild residents. Exhibits change regularly, so every visit presents an opportunity to learn something new, or discover a new talent. Always unique and engaging, and easily one of the most modern and timely galleries in the Wilmington area, Expo 216 earns its reputation as one of the most exciting new attractions on the local Cape Fear arts scene.
