Springtime in Winston-Salem means it's bulky item pick-up time again! Seen in front of Jon's house this past Sunday. The blog loves the idea of an entire city being spring-cleaned.

The semester is over, and the blog will soon be out and about on the streets of Winston-Salem. Here's one more look back. Teams participating in the scavenger hunt were required to sketch a highway overpass for the Creative Corridors Coalition. At that moment the wisdom of including a designer on the team became apparent. Read the official NEA blog to learn more about this project.
