Celeste Nelms is a visual artist from St. Paul, Minnesota. She completed a 4-week residency facilitated by the Coleman Center for Arts and Culture and the municipalWORKSHOP in York during March of 2005. She made photographs and interviewed people in the town of York, Alabama.

"My intent is to say thank you and to wish you all the best."
