ac and i are about to hop on a flight to virginia but i have a bunch of posts lined up for today so there’s plenty to come between now and 2pm. i wanted to start the day with an update about this year’s rock & shop in downtown raleigh, north carolina (click here for the d*s raleigh design guide). michelle smith is organizing this year’s event, which will be this saturday (tomorrow) june 28th from 1-5pm at the tir na nog in raleigh. there will be over 30 emerging designers featured and plenty of live music to keep you bopping through the show. modernradar (whose cards and pouches are featured above and below) will be there along with nonfiction design collective (featured below) as well as a slew of other great artists. click here for more information and to attend. [thanks, michelle!]
