About Rebus Works
Rebus Works is a vibrant, community-centered space nestled in Raleigh’s historic Boylan Heights neighborhood. Established in 2003 by local photographer Shonna Greenwell, it began as a gallery “by artists, for artists,” aiming to showcase unique and often overlooked art forms. Today, it continues to serve as a hub for local creativity and commerce.
The venue seamlessly blends a coffee shop, art gallery, and local market. Visitors can enjoy freshly brewed coffee or a selection of beers while browsing a curated collection of locally sourced groceries, plants, books, records, and handmade goods. The space also features a rotating art gallery, spotlighting regional artists each month. Additionally, the adjacent garden provides fresh produce and herbs, enhancing the local and sustainable ethos of the establishment.
Rebus Works is more than just a place to shop or grab a drink; it’s a gathering spot that fosters community connections through regular events, including the Boylan Art Walk and the DIY Punk Rock Flea Market.
