Catch on to local arts excitement
Published 5:20 pm Tuesday, June 19, 2012
Have you paid attention lately to the abundance of art-related activities passing through and even highlighting our area?
The Bulletin’s readers tend to be fairly astute and aware of happenings in our local art scene but in case you’ve missed the buzz, we’ve been very fortunate lately.
Monday, June 18 the Tryon Theatre appeared as a scene from Hollywood, complete with red carpet, tuxes and “paparazzi” for the premiere of “Get Better.” “Get Better” features not only the area’s own Robert Linder and Beverly Moore but also the beautiful mountain areas of our towns as characters in their own right.
This Thursday, dancers from New York take the stage at the Tryon Fine Arts Center, and this weekend the Tryon Gallery Trot will offer a look at the area’s finest artists.
The point to this editorial is basically to say – if you haven’t taken advantage of the art world that surrounds us here in the mountains, you should. You don’t have to understand Monet or Bach to enjoy the arts. Here there is something for everyone.
