The arts don't merely accompany our seasonal celebrations. They fundamentally shape how we experience this time of year, from the gifts we choose to the stories we tell.
In our new series, “Field Notes,” Executive Director Jeff Bell will relay his experiences as he travels the state, meeting the constituents and peers who make North Carolina the artistic hub that it is. These face-to-face visits are a chance for Jeff to get to know whom the North Carolina Arts Council serves and also to see the impact of our service firsthand. Here, Jeff describes a recent trip to western North Carolina, where he visited Asheville and surrounding counties.
