SUMMARY:Spirited Improv Fall Night Time Playshop Series in Asheville
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT SPIRITED IMPROV \nSpirited Improv is a unique fusion of expressive arts\, spiritual practice\, and group play that helps you release fear\, trust the unknown\, and show up as your truest self. Through embodied improvisational play\, movement\, voice\, storytelling\, music\, and customery\, we create a living container where authenticity is welcomed and presence is practiced. Over time\, this shared experience fosters deep connection\, confidence\, and a felt sense of belonging. \nFacilitated by Jessica Chilton\, who brings over 20 years of improvisational performing arts experience and 16 years as an expressive arts therapist\, weaving creativity\, spirituality\, and presence into a safe\, transformative group experience. \nSpirited Improv is for those seeking a spiritual community grounded in lived experience\, where growth happens through relationship\, creativity\, and the courage to show up fully. As we transform individually through improv\, we strengthen the collective and contribute to a more compassionate world. \nWHAT PAST PARTICIPANTS ARE SAYING \n“Spirited Improv is authentic\, vulnerable and connective. It meets my need to deeply feel\, be seen and see others. On my first night I experienced such a profound healing experience after sharing what was on my heart. It was like a sound\, healing touch\, full moon energy bath that opened my heart. ” ~ Kate \n“Spirited Improv is a fun and little bit edgy way of interacting with the mystery of the moment. You decide how much you want to interact or observe from the audience so you never have to do anything you don’t want to do. It is an opportunity to let go of control and explore the spontaneity of life and creativity in a supportive\, safe environment..” ~ Kenyon\n“I got to play\, move my body\, laugh\, take joy in watching my friends come alive\, give and receive big hugs\, and feel the presence of the ancestors who always join me. There’s something so sacred about being present with others while we play\, witness and embody what is.” ~ Sue \nWHO IS THIS FOR \nPeople drawn to spirituality\, personal growth\, and inner exploration\nThose seeking genuine connection\, community\, and a sense of belonging\nCreatives and non-creatives alike – no improv or performance experience needed\nIndividuals who value compassion\, openness\, and radical acceptance\nPeople who want to grow in joyful\, embodied ways rather than through heavy or rigid processes\nThose who want to make a positive impact by starting with inner transformation\nIf you’re open\, curious\, and willing to show up as you are—you belong here. \nCURIOUS BUT NOT READY TO JOIN? \nJoin us for the very first playshop of our multi-week series and if you love your first playshop (and we think you will)\, then you’ll have the opportunity to register for the remainder of the series.

DESCRIPTION:STANDING ROOM ONLY\n$1 FROM EACH TICKET SOLD DIRECTLY BENEFITS THE SATO PROJECT \nPLEASE NOTE\, THE VIP PACKAGES OFFERED DO NOT INCLIUDE A TICKET TO THE SHOW. PLEASE CART BOTH ITEMS AT CHECKOUT IF YOU’RE PLANNING TO TAKE PART IN ETHAN’S VIP PRE-SHOW HANG & PERFORMANCE. PACKAGES INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:\nPre-Show Acoustic Performance\nQ&A and hang with Ethan\nIndividual and group photos with Ethan\nCommemorative VIP laminate\nExclusive VIP merch item\nPriority access to show merch\n1 hour early access to venue\n*GA ticket required to attend the VIP experience\nETHAN REGAN\nEthan Regan is just the troubadour Gen Z needs. He’s had a fair share of significant viral moments\, but he’s also an accomplished and energetic showman on stage\, giving performances I.R.L. that leave a lasting mark. As a songwriter\, he’s both intensely introspective and sharply self-aware\, espousing the importance of self-care with sensitivity.. In this respect\, he makes timeless music with a modern mindset. Beyond playing instruments and\nsinging\, this Charlotte native with a restless\, road-worn spirit personally grabs the reins and produces\, mixes\, and masters his own songs. He has tallied nearly 100 million streams\, received critical acclaim\, and captivated sold-out rooms as a proven headliner. Creatively\, he doesn’t follow a formula. You’re just as likely to encounter a breezy chord progression in one of his tunes as you are to hear a rowdy and boisterous horn section or big screen-size\nstrings. Hitting the road\, he shined on bills with Sam Barber and Rainbow Kitten Surprise as well as Chelsea Cutler and Jeremy Zucker. Ethan’s self-produced 2025 EP\, honey honey honey\, saw him gain further traction with “get by” and “spaceman.” In the EP’s wake\, he canvased the country\, headlining his “I Almost Graduated” Tour and releasing the likes of “fool” and “sweet hunger.” Looking forward\, his artistry remains an unapologetic and unfiltered reflection of who he is. You’ll feel like you know him a little better on a series of 2026 singles for Columbia Records and his forthcoming debut album\, “YOUNG REGAN.” \nLILY KERSHAW\nThe strongest tool Lily Kershaw wields is her voice\, both in the simmering ferocity it carries and the poetry it speaks. For sophomore album Arcadia\, she is ultimately telling a story of acceptance\, both of herself and the great mystery that is the universe. Together with producer Ben Cooper (Radical Face)\, Lily takes her classic folk-tinged songs and weaves warmer analog sounds like organ\, harpsichord and guitar with cinematic force\, creating her most intimate release to date. In song and spirit\, Lily is an old soul\, but upon initial meeting she’s kinetic\, ebullient\, lively\, and kind\, quick with a joke and an infectious smile. Lily is a compulsive creator\, she jots down melodies and lyrics as she’s wandering through her days.

SUMMARY:Neal Francis
DESCRIPTION:STANDING ROOM ONLY \nNEAL FRANCIS\nNeal Francis’ music is an intoxicating blend of funk\, soul\, and rock that evokes the glory days of the 60s and 70s but is undeniably fresh. His 2019 debut album\, Changes\, drew lavish applause\, hailed as “the reincarnation of Allen Toussaint” by BBC Radio 6 and lauded by KCRW and more. Francis’s acclaimed 2nd LP\, In Plain Sight\, followed in 2021. Led by top 5 Americana radio favorite\, “Can’t Stop The Rain\,” the album earned international praise from such publications as MOJO\, who wrote\, “Francis digs deep on guileless rock and soul with bold flourishes.” Accolades followed\, including a 2022 Americana Music Awards nomination and Libera Award nominations in 2022 and 2024. Francis has sold out shows globally\, shared the stage with Wilco\, The Meters\, My Morning Jacket and Black Pumas\, appeared at major festivals such as Bonnaroo\, Fuji Rock\, Newport Folk\, Lollapalooza\, and performed on national TV. Francis’s live performance was captured in 2023’s double live album & concert film\, Francis Comes Alive. The 3rd album from Neal Francis\, Return To Zero\, emerged from a kind of visionary fever dream. Equal parts heady and hedonistic\, pensive and euphoric\, the LP echoes his deep-rooted psych-rock sensibilities and lifelong love of classic funk. Amid a relentless touring schedule\, Neal immersed himself in creating a beautiful\, strange\, all-analog entangling of timeless rock & roll and ’70s-era dance music\, merging supremely heavy guitar riffs with lush\, pulsating grooves. \nSAM FRIBUSH ORGAN TRIO

SUMMARY:BOLD STROKES: TAKE THE PLUNGE INTO WATERCOLOR with Nadine Charlsen
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to an individual freestyle approach to contemporary watercolor techniques\, using emotionally bold and dramatic light!  \nKnown for her work in experimental watercolor\, Nadine will demonstrate non-traditional tools and brushes\, as well as painting vertically on an easel.  This class is an investigation of working in watercolor from 23×30 or larger – you will learn to focus your watercolor techniques on large\, powerful compositions and images.  \nThrough demonstrations and one-on-one explanations\, students will be encouraged to approach this medium in a loose\, moody emotional techniques.  Nadine will discuss methods to build the image by laying in the dark strengths of the composition\, simplifying structure and details\, and working with strong values and color…draw less and paint more!  \nChoose your own subject with dramatic value and learn how to bring the painting to life! Students will work from photos\, their own reference\, basic sketches\, and their imagination. You can experiment with scrubbing\, dripping\, splashing and glazing and more in a a way to bring forward unexpected results!
