One of the most amazing things about living in Buncombe County is the wide variety of activities and experiences that you will be able to have. Most notable of those experiences often comes down to the ability to enjoy the arts - and that means taking advantage of seeing performances of the North Carolina Dance Festival:

The mission of N.C. Dance Festival is to make dance more accessible to state residents, while giving North Carolina artists more exposure. Joining the eight companies on the tour are dancers in each host city.

Asheville is a good stop for the tour because “we see how the art of dance is constantly changing and how our audiences are evolving,” said Susan Collard, of Asheville Contemporary Dance Theatre. “We are often surprised to see so many young choreographers coming to the state from other places and also some very seasoned ones.”

Whether dance is something that you’ve loved for a long time or it’s an art that’s relatively new to you (or just something that you haven’t really had the chance to experience), events like the North Carolina Dance Festival are a big part of the joys of living in Buncombe County.

Of course, living in Buncombe County is about far more than just the arts - it’s about having access to whatever it is that you’re looking for, and being able to take advantage of it. Living in Buncombe County is about reaching out and experiencing life every day.
