The North Carolina Arboretum is aglow! Winter Lights, that beloved walk-through light show featuring more than a million twinkling bulbs and the famous 50-foot tree, is dazzling visitors nightly through early January. Make sure to bundle up and wander through Quilt Garden; it’s a yearly tradition that never fails to surprise. For those hungry for something more hands-on, Asheville’s art scene is alive with gallery nights and the continuing exhibition Native America: In Translation at the Asheville Art Museum, which runs until early next month and explores Indigenous identity through contemporary photography.
Basketball fans, today brings a double matchup as UNC Asheville heads over the mountain to Cullowhee. The women’s team tips off against Western Carolina at 5:00, with the men coming on at 7:30. It’s a rivalry night, with both teams hungry for a big win and Bulldog fans ready to travel. If you’d rather stick close to home, local music venues are hosting everything from open mics to nationally touring acts. Organ Fairchild brings their funk to the Flat Iron tonight, and newer jazz and folk acts are popping up all over the local brewery scene.
Don’t forget, the community spirit is as strong as ever in Asheville. Officials want to reassure residents amid recent news of ICE and Customs and Border Protection activity elsewhere—our local law enforcement is not involved in federal immigration enforcement and remains committed to keeping Asheville a welcoming place for all. Organizations like Pisgah Legal Services are available for anyone in need of support, and neighbors are encouraged to stay informed, stand together, and celebrate the diversity that defines our city.
Whether you’re captivated by a garden of lights, shopping for one-of-a-kind gifts, or cheering on the Bulldogs, Asheville has something special for every neighbor and visitor today. This has been Asheville Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
