Get some green growing in your home with your own terrarium. We’ll be doing both closed and open styles and will have everything you need to make a beautiful creation.
This project runs $15-$50 depending on the size and plants you choose. All forms of payment are accepted. No preregistration required, just come in anytime between 12-4!
The Appalachian Christmas craft show brings together vendors from across the Appalachian region to sell their unique and beautiful crafts. The show is hosted by the Junaluska Woman’s Club and all profits go toward charitable organizations. The show is open to the public.
Join us for the 2nd annual Tis the Season Christmas Market!
Come get your shopping started early and support local business!
Over 50 vendors!
Come join the Astronomy Club of Asheville as we watch the Moon pass in front of the bright star Aldebaran (one of the bull’s eyes in the constellation Taurus). The event is free and open to the general public.
The club will have telescopes available to observe this Lunar Occultation from the Tanbark Ridge Overlook on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Witness our solar system’s motion in action and celebrate this brief “stellar blackout”! To learn more about the occulation, follow this link: http://
The star gaze is weather-dependent – continue to check the club’s website home page at www.AstroAsheville.org as weather could change the venue or possibly cancel a star gaze. Check-in again after 5:00 p.m. on the afternoon of the observing session for the latest info and update. Directions to Tanbark Ridge can be found here: http://
We are excited to host an Asheville Fire truck, that kids can explore at Greenlife’s Fall Festival today as well as kids crafts, face painting, and a Giving Grill for Whole Kids Foundation!
The Billy Jonas Band will bring their award-winning, creative, interactive and soul-inspiring show to Asheville Middle School on November 5th to benefit mindfulness programming.
We’re celebrating the holiday a little early this year with some killer shenanigans. Come hang with us as we release our collaboration beer with Harpoon Brewery! A dollar from every pour of this beer will go to 12 Baskets Cafe: a program of Asheville Poverty Initiative, who will be hanging with us with some brochures + information about their mission. We’ll also have live music from Cat and Crow, a regular duo at UpCountry Brewing, to play some soulful original tunes.
Although it’s not required, we encourage you to bring any canned or packaged food donations to our place so that the incredible 12 Baskets team can use it to cook for families during this holiday week.
This is going to be a killer pre-Thanksgiving hang, so we hope you’ll come out and see us to benefit local nonprofits, music, and beer. Cheers!
