Description: Why the photo is important to the narrative of Durham?
Bean Traders is a local staple to the people of South Durham who want a coffee shop that isn't a chain. The staff are great and the community the shop has created is great. They also serve fantastic coffee and food and have their own "Bull" outside.

What does Durham mean to you?
Durham is my home away from home. I have lived here for 20 years. It is the first place outside of the UK I have lived and despite travelling all over the US. Durham is where I call home. Durham NC is also linked with Durham in the UK.

PURPOSE:

We created this contest to show the world Durham beyond American Tobacco Campus, the Durham Bulls Athletic Park, and even the BULLoved Old Bull Sign. No shade. It’s just not right to only show a small snippet of Durham *ESPECIALLY* a city as rich in complexity, diversity, and only-in-Durhamness.

Contestants have done an incrediBULL job of showing the world Durham in its entirety from multiple perspectives.

What we got was so much more. This contest is proving to be the community connection we’re all starving for right now. To live in Durham and not be able to be *with* Durham is hard. It’s being homesick while at home. We’re grateful this contest is digitally creating a community gathering space.

This is Durham.

Public voting for The Durham Off the Beaten Path Photo Contest begins August 4th, 2020 and closes September 3rd, 2020 at the stroke of midnight. You can vote once a day per email.
