Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
If you weren’t at the Art of Business opening at the Raleigh City Museum this past First Friday, then you won’t be able to see the sign in the image above. It was a friendly and humorous reminder not to touch the Piggly Wiggly grocery store sign that was part of the exhibit (ever wonder about NOFO & The Pig in Five Points?). Someone in attendance decided that the ‘don’t touch’ sign needed to be in their home and lifted it.
What do nearly forgotten video games from the ’80′s do these days? They still like to get out and see the town and blow up things. Usually each other.
The first person to name the video game these characters are from wins this print from Paul Friedrich.

Nearly every city, suburb, or rural area has beautiful green spaces that are adored by locals, for various reasons. It may be a public park, a hidden path in a forest, ruins of a long abandoned house, or a garden – but to those who love them, it remains a place of solitude and source of happiness. One such place that maintains this status with me is the Raleigh Municipal Rose Garden and Little Theatre, in the Rosemont community near NC State campus.
