Raleigh resident Mike Nicklas is a solar architect, educator, and activist devoted to increasing the use of solar and clean renewable energy. His company, Innovative Design, focuses on increasing energy efficiency in schools and public buildings through the use of solar.

Abstract:
Charlotte's Tryon Center, opening in September 1999, will be more than a local arts council. Housed in an old burned church that was rebuilt as studios and offices through a $7 million grant from Bank of America, the center seeks to become a significant visual arts center in the Southeast. Plans include local artist support and an artist-in-residence program providing grants for nationally and internationally known artists.

Abstract:
A new trend is spreading in public art spaces. Instead of artists creating a sculpture or installment without the public’s input, artists are teaming up with residents to create collaborative art installations. In Sanford, Wilson, Raleigh, and Apex citizens are helping artists connect with society and allowing them to use their talents and skills for the greater good. This will lead to a greater appreciation of artists in society and a sense of community after collaborating on the public art projects.
