Towns of Carrboro and Chapel Hill Honor 50 Years of Cat’s Cradle
Posted Dec 1, 2019
In 1969, Marsha Fitch Wilson started Cat’s Cradle by holding pop-up concerts in the Pickwick Theatre Building in Chapel Hill. The Cradle did not have a permanent location until a few years later, when it moved under what is now Mediterranean Deli. After being evicted over noise complaints, the music venue moved around before settling in Carrboro.
