The family and wedding party gathered earlier for pictures. The wedding ceremony was held in an intimate setting followed by a cocktail hour then dinner and dancing in a larger building. They even had a trivia game set up in the upper floor. The venue offered everything: vast menu options, a selection of DJs to book, and even hair stylists. All of the flowers were freshly grown from the farm. Highly recommend this venue.

The botanical tea drinks were fabulous. I was seeking an iced coffee, which they had, but was very glad I tried the barista's recommendation.

The older gentleman there is truly inspiring and has a lot of interesting, do good life experiences to share.

The city is known for Duke university, but I discovered this lesser known college and its art…read moremuseum. It's only a couple of miles from Duke's ostentatious art museum, but the ride over will tell you a lot about America. When I parked nearby, this museum, I saw a substantial number of people walking in the general direction and assumed that they could not possibly be going to the art museum and there must be some other attraction on campus. In fact, I had stumbled into a showcase for local schools, and the one room museum was packed. Students of all levels had the opportunity to showcase their art alongside works from professional artists that I assume are part of the standing collection. There is definitely some talent in the community, and well the space is modest and as utilitarian feel, it's value as a community center should not be underestimated. There is no charge to enter in one doesn't need to be enrolled at this college.

The museum is just open Friday and Saturdays. No admission is charged and we couldn't find anywhere to leave a donation. The building that houses the museum was built in 1911 and where a fire station once was. A 1930 firetruck remains in the building. We were warmly greeted when we arrived and given a notepad and pen that we could use to sign into the guest book. The souvenirs were a nice way of keeping us safe from COVID. The staff wore masks as did all visitors to the museum. The director gave us a personal tour of the museum that we did not expect but provided a lot of background information of the town from photos to exhibits. It is nice that the town's history has been preserved. There is a North Carolina flag that was flown at the county courthouse. Other items show everyday life including the ledger register for payments made and receipts. One exhibit recognizes a hometown celebrity that was Miss Carolina and has many of her awards. The Coca Cola sign from the soda fountain shop is also displayed. I was most excited about the 1930 firetruck and equipment. I'm always amazed what these firefighters could do with so little available at the time. The second floor recognizes the athletes in the area and there is also a small library. The second floor can only be reached by going up stairs. The museum is a great addition to Graham's history.
