This exhibit asked local photographers to take a "Portrait of Raleigh." Hundreds of submissions followed; the juried results on display presented Raleigh's past, present, and future through the unique angle of a camera lens. |
The Art of Business was an artifact heavy display of commercial art from Raleigh’s past. With artifacts including signage, print collateral, packaging, and advertisements, museum visitors got a glimpse of the beautiful craft that went into designing the business identities of the past. |
