Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night
On Tuesday night, students from the NC State student body came together to celebrate the rising prominence of fashion design at the University. What seems like a perfectly natural evolution, given State’s top caliber design and textile programs, has been most popularly recognized during the annual Art to Wear fashion show.
Our Flashback Friday postcard this week features an early view of the campus of Shaw University. The scene depicted is at the corner of Wilmington and South streets. Seen in this view are, left to right, Estey Hall, Mansion House and Shaw Hall.
Starting this First Friday (April Fool’s Day), a new art gallery will be open to the public: the Roundabout Art Collective. Featuring the works of 25 artists, the new project is headed by the First Lady of NC State, Susan Woodson.
This week Flashback Friday soars high above Raleigh’s beloved State Capitol. The sophisticated 19th century Greek Revival building has stood on this spot for 175 years. We’ll also take a peek at the history of this building and its predecessors. So climb aboard and enjoy the flight!
