DOCOMOMO US_NC Meets in Raleigh


In coordination with Preservation North Carolina's Annual Meeting October 24-27, 2007, the North Carolina Chapter of DOCOMOMO US held an affinity reception at the Urban Design Center. Over 75 attended, some from as far away as Richmond, Philadelphia, and Charleston.

Thanks to DOCOMOMO US_NC board member Beth Yerxa of Raleigh for organizing this event. One special guest was modernist architect Brian Shawcroft who was interviewed by DOCOMOMO board member Cynthia DeMiranda on his past projects and perspectives. We also enjoyed a power point presentation display on North Carolina Modernism.

DOCOMOMO US_NC will be planning a slate of initiatives for the coming year, including ideas for our annual meeting tour in May, and our PNC annual meeting affinity reception which will be held in Winston-Salem. If other ideas and energy are out there, let me know at bbriggs@blandwood.org. I will be glad to discuss.

Thanks to all those who attended the reception!
