SUMMARY:“Jacob Marley’s Christmas Carol” at NC Stage
DESCRIPTION:Jacob Marley is dead — and things are about to get worse.\nShackled\, miserable\, and tormented by a hell-sprite who is far too enthusiastic about his work\, Marley faces an eternity of exactly what he deserves. Unless\, of course\, he can do something about Ebenezer Scrooge. In this re-imagining of the classic Christmas Carol story\, the ghost gets his own journey — and it turns out redemption is just as hard to come by on the other side of the grave as it is on this one. Tom Mula’s Jacob Marley’s Christmas Carol is a clever\, moving\, and enjoyable holiday journey for audiences of all ages. \nAll Tickets for this Show are on a Sliding Scale!\nChoose Your Price from the Following Options: $15\, $25\, $35\, $45\, $55\nWednesdays\, Thursdays\, Saturdays: 7:30pm ; Sundays: 2pm\nFirst Friday (12/4): 7:30pm ; last two Fridays (12/11 & 12/18): 2pm\nAdditional matinees on the last two Saturdays (12/12 & 12/19): 2pm

SUMMARY:The Art of Wellbeing: Therapeutic Art Making in the Museum
DESCRIPTION:Art has the power to heal\, restore\, and reconnect us to what matters most. Join us at the Asheville Art Museum for a guided art-making session led by a registered art therapist\, designed to explore how art can be a tool to nurture your mental and emotional wellbeing. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or have never picked up a paintbrush\, come as you are and leave feeling refreshed. Join Alexis for sessions on August 15\, September 19\, and December 19. \nDr. C. Alexis Decosimo is a licensed mental health clinician\, registered art therapist\, and Doctor of Public Health. She specializes in helping children\, families\, and individuals access healing through blending therapeutic artmaking and evidence-based approaches including EMDR\, cognitive behavioral therapy\, and person-centered approaches.\nShe believes in meeting clients where they are\, drawing on creative modalities to open pathways to healing that talk therapy alone may not reach. Her clinical work is deeply informed by over a decade of international experience building mental health programs in some of the world’s most under-resourced settings\, giving her a grounded\, adaptive\, and culturally sensitive approach to care.\nIn her Asheville practice\, she brings that same commitment to accessible\, ethical\, and community-rooted mental health support to help clients process trauma\, build resilience\, and find their footing through the power of expressive therapy.
