Join us every Thursday evenings from March 20th on the equinox through October at our vibrant farmers market from 4-7 PM!
Experience fresh, local produce and handcrafted goods from passionate growers and farmers — the backbone of our community. Enjoy live music, locally roasted coffee, ice cream, a dedicated kids area, and ice-cold beer. Our current vendor list is fire, and we’re still accepting applications.
Come for the goods, stay for the vibe! See you there, friends and neighbors!
3rd Sundays of each month Sept-May
Welcome to the Asheville Area Family Folk Dance! Come enjoy a tradition of community dance and live music handed down from generation to generation! A dance leader will teach each dance in a way anyone can understand, and the live open band will have your toes tapping no matter what! These simple dances are a good intro for adults and children to traditional social dance such as contra, squares, circles, play-party games, and other formations. We will draw from the American folk tradition as well as a few international favorites. Expect an atmosphere of laughter, encouragement, and connection!
All ages are welcome, no experience necessary. Children must be accompanied by an adult, but adults need not be accompanied by a child.
