SUMMARY:Craft-itarianism: Community Action Through Craft
DESCRIPTION:The word craft-itarianism was coined by 2026 Center for Craft Curatorial Fellow Alyssa Velazquez to name artistic projects that generate employment\, raise awareness\, or offer therapeutic support through craft. These programs provide a space where people affected by addiction\, incarceration\, and gun violence can find solidarity while learning a skill. \nCraft-itarianism: Community Action Through Craft celebrates nonprofits and artists who believe in—and actively practice—the power of craft to support and empower individuals and communities.  \nThis exhibition was curated by 2026 Center for Craft Curatorial Fellow Alyssa Velazquez. Launched in 2017\, the Curatorial Fellowship supports emerging curators exploring new ideas about craft with mentorship\, professional development\, and a $5\,000 honorarium to realize an exhibition. \nOn view February 27\, 2026–September 27\, 2026

SUMMARY:Asheville Symphony Masterworks 1: Fellowship
DESCRIPTION:Darko Butorac\, conductor \nJakob Aumiller\, piano \nWhat does genius look like? Often it looks like community. Brahms crafted his exuberant First Piano Concerto through years of collaboration with close friends and mentors\, including Clara Schumann who inspired the concerto’s dreamy second movement. Beethoven’s relentless Seventh Symphony — a personal favorite of his with its unyielding rhythmic drive — premiered at a charity concert performed by an orchestra of friends and fellow composers. Both works emerged from profound creative kinship and community\, proof that greatness rarely stands alone. \nBrahms: Piano Concerto No. 1 \nBeethoven: Symphony No. 7

SUMMARY:Exhibition on Screen | Michelangelo: Love and Death
DESCRIPTION:“Michelangelo – Love and Death” offers a cinematic journey through the great chapels and museums of Florence\, Rome and the Vatican\, to the print and drawing rooms of Europe\, to explore Michelangelo’s tempestuous life. The film goes in search of a greater understanding of this charismatic and enigmatic figure\, both through his relationships with his contemporaries and his ongoing artistic legacy. The film invites audiences to intimately examine Michelangelo’s art and artistic process – from the Carrara quarries where Michelangelo sourced his marble\, to the new technology being used to attribute works. The film also offers a rare chance to get up close to the mesmerizing Rothschild Bronzes\, which\, following an extensive research project carried out by Academics in Cambridge in 2015\, were positively attributed to Michelangelo after over a century of debate.

SUMMARY:PATIO SHOW: Ross Hollow with Full Band
DESCRIPTION:– LIMITED PATIO SEATING IS FIRST COME FIRST SERVE \nROSS HOLLOW WITH FULL BAND\nRoss Hollow is an indie folk artist out of Asheville\, North Carolina rooted in honest lyricism\, inviting melodies and a rugged spirit of individualism. Founded by singer-songwriter and producer Stuart Ross Johnson-Kwochka\, Ross Hollow has come full circle: from its beginnings as a solo act\, to a full band\, and now back to its core with Stuart Ross at the helm\, writing and recording from a quiet corner in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains.\nRoss Hollow’s music is as much about place as it is about people. Born in the high desert of Roswell\, New Mexico\, his earliest memories are steeped in the sounds of Spanish folk\, cowboy ballads\, and classic country—music that echoed under wide-open skies\, thunderstorms you could see miles away\, and sun-drenched plains. He later moved to Burnsville\, North Carolina\, where Appalachian gospel\, bluegrass\, and Scots-Irish folk music left their mark. He later moved to Indianapolis\, Indiana\, where he was surrounded by heartland rock\, chicago blues and rust-belt emo\, which began to shape his own songwriting voice. \nNow settled back in Asheville\, Ross Hollow finds inspiration in fog-draped mornings\, rhododendron thickets\, the quiet of mountain trails\, and the wild animals all around. Recent work leans into a more organic\, acoustic sound\, rich with finger picked guitar\, warm harmonies\, and collaborations with guest vocalists and string players that evoke the natural beauty in Southern Appalachia

SUMMARY:Noah Rinker
DESCRIPTION:STANDING ROOM ONLY \nNOAH RINKER\nIt’s place and perspective that drive 23-year-old musician Noah Rinker’s sound. It propels his lyricism and informs his entire point of view. Growing up in the mountains of California\, he found song wherever he could. He picked up the guitar at 14\, learning to play it like a lap steel because he assumed the fretboard might work the same way a keyboard did. At 16\, he wrote his first song. But it was “leaving for sessions with other collaborators that made me realize that home was the thing that made me who I was all along.”\nYou see that connection between song and soul in his videos: Noah\, a guitar\, and the place he grew up. Sometimes you’ll see the mountains sprawled out behind him as he plays; other times\, he’s cloaked in darkness\, only lit by a crackling campfire. There are covers mixed in with originals; snippets of works-in-progress tossed in\, paired with months-in-the-making singles he’s on the cusp of releasing. The music is real\, it’s raw\, and it’s Noah Rinker distilled and at his truest essence. Songs like “Save My Soul” and “Wherever I Go” and “99” introduce the world to a storyteller doing what he does best—digging deep\, baring his soul\, and laying it out on the page for just a few minutes of honest connection.

SUMMARY:Sister Act - Flat Rock Playhouse - 10/2-10/25
DESCRIPTION:When disco diva Deloris Van Cartier witnesses a crime\, she hides out in the last place anyone would look — a convent. Suddenly\, the sequins are swapped for habits\, and the nightclub turns into a nave. But when Deloris brings her unholy amount of soul to the choir loft\, heaven gets a whole new groove. \nSister Act is a holy-rolling\, soul-lifting celebration of sisterhood\, second chances\, and songs that raise the roof. As Deloris helps the sisters find their voices\, they just might change her heart in return. \nPart divine comedy\, part disco revival\, it’s proof that a little funk — and a lot of faith — can turn any sanctuary into a showstopper. \nEvent Times: 2:00 PM & 7:30 PM

SUMMARY:The Art of Presence: Meditation and Reflection in the Museum
DESCRIPTION:Step into the Museum’s galleries before the doors open for a quiet and contemplative morning of meditation\, mindful walking\, and reflection. This guided experience invites participants to slow down\, settle the nervous system\, and explore the Museum as a place of sanctuary\, spaciousness\, and renewal. \nThe session will begin with a brief seated meditation\, followed by a walking meditation through selected exhibits. Along the way\, participants will pause with gentle mindfulness prompts designed to support personal reflection\, embodied awareness\, and a deeper connection with the artwork. Rather than offering art historical interpretation\, the experience encourages each participant to notice what arises within them through presence\, stillness\, and mindful seeing. The group will honor noble silence throughout much of the session with occasional opportunities for brief reflection and sharing. No previous meditation experience is needed. \nJoin Joshua on August 22\, October 3\, November 7\, and December 5. \nJoshua Canter is a mindfulness meditation teacher and the founder of True Nature Travels and Education\, an Asheville-based organization that has offered transformative retreats and educational experiences around the world for more than 20 years. He holds a master’s degree in Contemplative Psychology and is passionate about making mindfulness accessible\, grounded\, and relevant to everyday life.
