ArtPutt
May 1st – September 30th, 2026 | 8am-2am
Bloc[83] Courtyard, 621 Hillsborough Street
ArtPutt presented by UNC Health Championship is a surrealist mini-golf course where every hole is a work of art. The self-serve, pop-up course features only local artists showcasing what makes the great state of North Carolina so colorful and unique. You may remember this experience from City Plaza last summer, and now it’ll pop up in Bloc[83] with a refreshed look through the end of September.
Use the lockbox code 0621 to access putters, balls, and scorecards from the garden box on-site, then return and lock them up when you finish.
Artists: Zac Bender, Jenn Hales, and Nico Amortegui
