Getting excited about the opening of CAM on April 30th.
This weekend the Contemporary Art Museum will officially open with a catered street festival and black tie event Friday, and the free admission official ribbon-cutting ceremony on Saturday.

This week we feature a beautifully tinted early postcard depicting the Baptist University for Women, now known as Meredith College. Our card shows its original building on Blount Street.
And the brief, hand-written message on the back says it all.
