We’ve got so many reasons to give thanks! In each of our program areas, we see ordinary people taking heroic action to protect our home from the pressures of a changing climate.
This year-end, we’re highlighting stories that inspired us and sharing how we’re planting seeds to create a climate-resilient future for all of us.
With our native pollinators, more is more. The more habitat we plant, the more easily our native pollinators can find shelter and food, the more resilient they become to the challenges posed by pesticides and extreme heat—the more stable our entire food ecosystem becomes.
- Donate $25+ and get a day pass to the WNC Nature Center.
- Donate $50+ and get an animal sticker and a day pass.
- Donate $100+ and get an animal tracks necklace, animal sticker, and a day pass.
- Donate $250+ and get a a guided tour of the Nature Center with animal enrichment for two people, plus the necklace, sticker, and day pass. PLUS, you’ll be entered to win a chance to go on habitat with red pandas Leafa and Phoenix in 2023!

Right now, a team of doctors is scrubbing in for a surgery while a patient waits for a procedure that they hope will save their life; blood bags are prepared and ready. In a different hospital, a team of nurses is giving a trauma victim a lifesaving blood transfusion. Several floors away, a cancer patient is receiving a platelet transfusion after chemotherapy. Those patients, and thousands of others, can hope and plan for the new year because blood products were available.
As we enter 2023, many are looking at a piece of paper, writing down their new year’s resolutions and goals: ‘read ten books…get outside more often…go to the gym.’ The Blood Connection (TBC), the non-profit community blood center, is encouraging people to add one more thing to that list: save a life with TBC. It may sound daunting. It may sound unachievable. But with just one hour and one blood donation, three lives can be saved in this community. The difference between a joyous and tragic new year for many local families is community blood donors.
TBC is urging community members to make blood donation a priority in 2023 – because, simply put: lives depend on it.

Music Movie Mondays Series:
Concert for George
Special one-night-only screening of the Grammy-winning concert film
followed by an interactive discussion moderated by music journalist Bill Kopp
George Harrison was sometimes referred to as “the quiet Beatle.”
Somewhat overshadowed by the immense songwriting of John Lennon
and Paul McCartney, his artistry might not have always received the
recognition it deserved. But Harrison – already the composer of classic
tracks like “Something” and “Here Comes the Sun” – blossomed as a
solo artist in the post-Beatles era. His 1970 triple album All Things Must
Pass is a landmark work. Along the way, Harrison developed deep and
lasting friendships with celebrated names in music, the arts,
entertainment and philanthropy.
In the wake of George’s untimely passing in 2002, an all-star group of those friends mounted a
concert in tribute to their friend. A film of that performance at London’s Royal Albert Hall, Concert for
George won a Grammy Award for Best Long Form Music Video.
In commemoration of the 20 th anniversary of the tribute event, a limited-engagement screening of
Concert for George is being scheduled in select theaters. Asheville’s Grail Moviehouse is hosting
Concert for George one night only: January 9, 2023. It’s the latest installment of the Music Movie
Mondays series hosted by author and music journalist Bill Kopp. Sponsored by AshevilleFM, the
event will include a brief introduction, a screening of the film, and an interactive discussion
immediately following.
As the press kit for Concert for George summarizes:
“On November 29, 2002, one year after his passing, Olivia Harrison and Eric Clapton
organized a performance tribute to celebrate the life and music of George Harrison. Held
at London’s Royal Albert Hall, the momentous evening featured George’s songs, and music
he loved, performed by artists including Eric Clapton, Joe Brown, Dhani Harrison, Jools
Holland, Jeff Lynne, Paul McCartney, Monty Python, Tom Petty, Billy Preston, Ravi &
Anoushka Shankar, Ringo Starr and more.”
Hosted by Asheville-based author and music journalist Bill Kopp, Grail Moviehouse presents a special
screening of Concert for George on Monday,
Jan. 9 @ 7pm and sponsored by
AshevilleFM. After a brief introduction, we’ll watch the film together. And then afterward,
we’ll engage in a moderated discussion about George Harrison and the
Concert for George in his honor.
The event is the second and latest in the series of Music Movie Mondays at
Grail Moviehouse. We’ll watch and discuss new releases, classics and cult
favorites.
