🤩 DISNEY DREAMER! Congratulations to Chapel Hill High School student Vianna Fornville, just named to the Disney Dreamers Academy Class of 2025!

Every Spring, 100 exceptional young people characterized by their intellectual curiosity, compassion, courage, generous spirit and optimism are selected for a four-day academy at the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando. During the Academy, Dreamers participate in interactive career workshops, motivational talks and networking opportunities. According to the program’s website, they also meet Disney cast members, celebrities, industry experience and community leaders (and yes, there’s free time to enjoy the theme parks, too 😉)

Vianna, who is also the first student from all of Orange County to attend the Academy, recalls the wisdom shared often by her mother, Vickie, a CHCCS Board of Education member: “In order to do the things that we want to do, we must do things that we have to do”. Vianna, who also serves as a CHCCS Equity and Empathy Ambassador, then told us “This quote represents all of the work that I’ve done for my community, and how it’s all led up to this moment.”

Way to go, Vianna!

The beloved, Black-owned bar and lounge in downtown Raleigh known as House of Art went up in flames early Tuesday morning and was severely damaged.

The House of Art entrance at 306 E. Hargett St. suffered most of the damage, with the fire destroying much of the building's interior. Fire crews responded to the fire after 3 a.m. and contained it. The structure is still standing, and the rear outdoor area appeared to not have been impacted.

House of Art is known for its colorful decor, drinks, Instagrammable interiors, and a reputation as a lively place to check out local bands, artists, community events and pop-ups. Its owners said the fire is devastating to the Triangle's artist community.

"House of Art isn't just a venue; it's a home for artists, musicians and creatives of all kinds," the owners said in a statement on social media. "It's where ideas spark, connections are made and memories are shared. It's also the home of St. Nicks, Raleigh's favorite Christmas pop-up. Right now we're leaning on faith and the strength of our community as we navigate what comes next."
