Painted Ponies Art Walk & Auction

Painted Ponies Art Walk & Auction brings art, community, and philanthropy together at the Carolina Horse Park. Local and regional artists have transformed life-size horse sculptures into one-of-a-kind works of art, each sponsored by generous community partners. As a 501(c)(3) charitable Nonprofit Corporation, proceeds from this beloved fundraiser directly support the Park’s mission of land conservation, equestrian sport, and community education. Join us as we celebrate creativity with purpose and invest in the future of the Carolina Horse Park.
