Arts & Culture
From the first brilliant brushstroke on a local painter’s canvas to the stirring conclusion of a grand symphony, Transylvania County’s artists and performers provide visitors the countless opportunities to enjoy a level of creativity as exceptional and varied as its mythic landscape.
These mountains teem with a rich cultural heritage and an imaginative spirit that unites virtuoso violinists with bluegrass fiddlers, contemporary sculptors with indigenous potters, Shakespearean actors with Old-Time humorists. There’s a little something for everyone, whimsical, studied, or sublime, no matter where your flight of fancy may lead you.
