Little Pet Chapels

Winston-Salem artist's 'Little Pet Chapels' provide outlet for grief

When walking through one of Winston-Salem’s many parks, you may encounter a box resembling one of those Little Free Libraries where people share books with neighbors. But when you open the box, instead of finding books, you’ll see a collection of notes, photos, remembrances, and yes, Valentines, dedicated to departed pets. They’re part of the Little Pet Chapel project, the brainchild of local author and artist Lynn Byrd.
