Hey, something to put in your new planner! Yay! For those of you (like me) who get antsy at closings, here's a good one: the NC Museum of Art is closing for seven months on September 6 (say that 10x fast).
Why? They are gearing up and moving a ton of art into the new building, which currently looks like an airport hangar, but will soon be this lovely deal. The new building is really promising for event space, in my opinion. Look at slides three and four in that last link. Agree? There will also be a cool installation by Patrick Dougherty, Chapel Hill artist who did the facade of the Max Azria boutique in LA. Funky.
In the meantime, there will still be outdoor events, events around Raleigh, bla bla bla, etc.
Before they pack up to move the 150 feet though, I recommend going in and checking out the galleries one last time in their original elements. The Highlights of the American Collection is a sweet exhibition, and manageable in a short amount of time. Their cafe, Blue Ridge, is also super delicious...perfect for girls' brunch or a business meeting.
