Underground

Exhibit Opening - The Underground: Photographs of Raleigh’s Music Scene 1976-1985

July 14, 2018

The COR Museum will be opening an exhibit on the various clubs and performers who played at beneath Cameron Village. The Underground exhibit is based on the documentary photographs of local photographer Chris Seward. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Seward took thousands of images of the music scene in these clubs. The Underground will exhibit many of these along with show fliers, artifacts, and videos from the heyday of Raleigh’s alternative music scene. The Underground will open on July 14 and be on display through December 2018.
