Carrboro Creative Coworking

Today Abby came by and brought some photos. We hung six of them up. Its wonderful to have more cool art on the walls. The work is stellar and for sale. One hundred percent of the sales of these photos will go to the artist. Can't wait to have the opening party so you can see it all up close. I hope it inspires people and puts them in the mood to create.

This pic is by Abbyladdybug. Check out all her other amazing photos on Flickr.

Fred Stuzman, over on his blog Unit Structures, has written a very flattering bog post about CCC. It means more to me than Dean Smith Endorsing Obama. :)

Here's a taste:

Brian has done a wonderful job in getting the place up and running. He’s got an absolutely professional setup, great comfy chairs, and the Coworking office is in 2-minute-walk proximity to Weaver Street Market and all of downtown Carrboro. I was really impressed - and I look forward to working from CCC (looking like Thursdays might be my coworking days).

One of my goals in building CCC has been to make it a fun, funky, and creative atmosphere. So I've been gathering art to put on the walls to provide joy and inspiration. Here is a pic of a great piece of art by Paul Friedrich near the coffee machine. A wonderful present from great friends.

Another big painting is already up and viewable on Flickr. Check it out! Much more work to come.

I slept really well last night. That tells me that I’m on top of things. If I’d left anything serious undone I’d be much more anxious. People kept on asking me this morning if I’m excited and how I feel. I had to respond that I feel very good but relaxed. I do have a ton of energy today but it’s being put to work.

The big news is all Offices and desks are sold. We now have waiting lists. Every Full Time Coworker and Office Coworker space is full! An amazing thing considering we’ve only been open one day.

We have a Business License! I received it just thirty minutes ago. That means we can open officially this Monday October 6, 2008. Our initial business hours are 9am to 6pm Monday to Friday.

Opening party details to come. See you soon!

Marc Dewalle from the NC Startup Blog interviewed me via email about CCC. Its awesome that folks are blogging about startups here. I'm excited that there are so many smart young folks building things in the Triangle. Soon these folks will have a home built just for them. :) Hope you enjoy the post Startup Profile: Carrboro Creative Coworking.
