The Asheville Art Museum has organized a new exhibition opening July 22 titled Home Land, which features a number of southeastern Native artists who honor their ancestral land through their work. The exhibition, which will be on view at the Museum’s temporary On the Slope location, will run through September 17.

Inspired by the Museum’s recent acquisition Home Land, a cutting-edge contemporary basket by Eastern Band Cherokee artist Shan Goshorn, Asheville Art Museum Associate Curator Carolyn Grosch and Cherokee Indian Hospital’s Lynne Harlan have co-curated an exhibition that explores the connections southeastern Native artists have to their ancestral homelands.

Drawn primarily from the collection of Lambert Wilson, a passionate collector of southeastern Native art for over 30 years, the exhibition brings together artists working in a variety of media whose art addresses the legacy of removal and the enduring ties Native artists and their communities have to their lands of origin.

The basket Home Land, woven in a traditional Cherokee style single-weave technique, features a reproduced letter that Cherokee Chief John Ross wrote to the U.S. War Department in the 1830s, as well as generations-old medicine stories that speak to the healing remedies of indigenous plants and waters. These elements woven together represent the fierce connection Native people have to their land.

The Pan is HERE! Montford Park Players Presents Family Classic, J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan Peter Pan, by J.M. Barrie Produced by Montford Park Players at the Hazel Robinson Amphitheatre Show Dates: August 4-September 2 Fri, Sat and Sun @ 7:30pm    Hazel Robinson Amphitheatre, 92 Gay St. Asheville, NC    Montford Park Players is proud announce their production of the family classic Peter Pan, by J.M. Barrie. All performances will be held at the Hazel Robinson Amphitheatre at 92 Gay Street in the heart of Asheville’s historic Montford District, from August 4th through September 2nd, on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings at 7:30pm. This performance like ALL of Montford Park Players’ shows will be absolutely FREE to attend. Full of action, adventure and fun, Peter Pan tells the well-known tale of Peter, the boy who wouldn’t grow up, and his adventures with the Darling children, Wendy, John and Michael, in the ever-magical Neverland. There they meet the nefarious Captain Hook, Tinkerbell the fairy, the Lost Boys, pirates, mermaids and other characters you’ve come to know and love. The play has all of the epic battles, flying and magic from all of the versions, from Disney to Spielberg, that have been produced over the 110 years since it was first performed for a live audience. Director Jason Williams likes the play due to its author’s “childlike imagination,” and says, “In what other play do you get mischievous fairies, flying children, ominous pirates, special effects, swashbuckling swordfights, and a large ticking Crocodile? I am drawn to the play’s sense of adventure and magic.” Focused on the works of William Shakespeare, Montford Park Players has never mounted a production of Peter Pan, and rarely takes on plays of such complexity and scope. Says Williams, “I hope the audience comes away from the show with a new respect for what theater is capable of. I hope they see it as something special and unique, and that they were excited to be there to witness it.” Peter Pan has a huge cast of over thirty actors. Many of them are quite young and brand new to the theater world and even more of them taking their first spin on the Amphitheatre stage. Young Mars Mignon takes on the role of Peter, with Sarah Holt, Brendan Nickerson and Aidan Short taking on Wendy, John and Michael, respectively. You can also catch MPP regulars David Mycoff as Captain Hook and Darren Marshall as his first mate, Smee. For more information or to reserve seats, go to montfordparkplayers.org, or call at (828) 254-5146. Come FLY with us!
