The long, winding journey of the Raleigh Contemporary Art Museum ends this weekend with its opening in downtown west Raleigh. A gentleman and photographer named John Morris has a marvelous blog called
Goodnight, Raleigh that has a
lengthy post on the museum, its history and the development of the building with some excellent before, during and after shots. John begins his post...
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.
It’s my belief that CAM’s opening in this beautiful building in the Warehouse District is the greatest thing to happen to Downtown Raleigh since the new Convention Center opened almost three years ago.
This weeks Independent also has a couple of features on the museum
here and
here. One of John's photos of the building is linked below.
