April 2018

Congratulations to Frank Harmon, FAIA, for being recipient of the 2018 Designlife Award! Frank was honored at the Designlife Gala, an annual event that celebrates the life of the NCSU College of Design. We sponsored the Gala for the first time this year and couldn’t be more thrilled for Frank, who continues to have a huge influence on us personally and on our larger community and region. It was a beautiful evening. Congratulations, Frank!

If you haven’t already registered for some or all of the offerings at AIA Triangle’s Connections 81.2 event, do so by visiting www.connections.design. The event is a three-day series of talks, charrettes, and public presentations that focus on potential alternative uses for 81.2 acres of land near downtown Raleigh and Dorothea Dix Park, currently occupied by the North Carolina Central Prison and The Governor Morehead School. The event is Friday 05 18 18 – Sunday 05 20 18. We hope to see you there!

We are thrilled to be hosts again this year for ARTHOUSE 2018 at CAM Raleigh! Last year’s event was spectacular, and we are looking forward to a repeat performance this Friday. Food and libations will be provided by Crawford and Son, and, for the first time, there will be one-of-a-kind surprise boxes featuring local art, design, and experiences for sale. Get your tickets here. All proceeds benefit CAM.

Our good friend, John Moore, has an upcoming show of photographs at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh. John is an accomplished structural engineer from Charleston who we had the pleasure of working with during our time in Frank Harmon’s office. The show is titled “The Great Smoky Mountains” and will be in the Museum Store/Nature Art Gallery from 05 04 18 to 05 27 18. An opening reception will be held in the space on Sunday, 05 05 18, from 2:00-4:00 PM. We hope to see you there!
