Orange County’s art scene just got bigger

Orange County’s Uproar Festival wrapped up with a burst of creativity, awarding $10,000 each to two standout artists. Mike Roig’s kinetic metal sculpture, “Swimming in an Ocean of Air,” turned heads on the Carrboro Town Hall lawn, while Damian Hoffman’s whimsical “Tiny Houses in the Big Woods” charmed voters in Hillsborough. With 60 public art pieces lighting up Chapel Hill, Carrboro, and Hillsborough, this year’s festival drew record crowds and even led to local governments purchasing several installations. How do you think public art changes the vibe of our towns? Which piece would you want to see stay? #Entertainment #Painting #OrangeCountyArt
