Carrboro, the "Paris of the Piedmont" Term was coined in 1972 by UNC grad student Nyle Frank, when during the hippy era, he tried to teach some extra curricular "classes" on campus and ran into trouble. So he took his "Invisible Universe" to Carrboro and helped coin the term Paris of the Piedmont. It was sort of a joke back then, but now Carrboro has lots of artist interessts, like resident artists, galleries and of course the ArtsCenter and the Cat's Cradle. There's a Salviador Dali exhibit going on now and next weekend at Town Hall. So now the name fits. We celebrate all that May 3rd at the second annual Carrboro Day. Richard Taylor Carrboro
