Is This a Room
Nov 21 all-day
NC State Company

THRILLER | SUSPENSE | TRUE STORY

A 25-year-old former Air Force linguist named Reality Winner is surprised at her home by the FBI, interrogated, and then charged with leaking evidence of Russian interference in U.S elections. Reality was given a record breaking sentence and was released from prison to a half-way house on June 2, 2021 for good behavior.

The FBI transcript of her interrogation is the heart of Is This a Room, conceived as a play and directed by Obie Award-winner Tina Satter, in which an extraordinary human drama unfolds between the complex and witty Reality, and the agents who question her. As Reality’s autonomy shrinks before her eyes, a simmering real-life thriller emerges, asking what it is to have honor in this American moment, and how the personal can reverberate globally.

Performances of Is This a Room will be held on the days and times listed below. The lobby and concessions area will open one hour prior to showtime. Concessions may be taken into the theatre during the performance.

November 5 – November 23

Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 7:30pm

Artful Living: The Spirit of the Craftsman Style
Nov 21 @ 10:00 am – 5:00 pm
Grovewood Gallery

Grovewood Gallery proudly presents Artful Living: The Spirit of the Craftsman Style, a group exhibition celebrating the enduring influence of the American Arts and Crafts movement. On view from October 18 through December 31, 2025, this curated showcase brings together the work of four contemporary makers who honor traditional craftsmanship while offering fresh perspectives on timeless forms.

Featured artists include ceramicist Leslie Green Guilbault, a Roycroft Artisan whose pottery blends nature, myth, and metallic luster; blacksmith Paul Garrett, known for his handcrafted metalwork and luminous mica lamps inspired by early 20th-century design; furniture maker Timothy Livingston, whose heirloom-quality pieces reflect a deep reverence for honest materials and joinery; and painter Shawn Krueger, a Roycroft Master Artisan whose landscapes echo the quiet mood and tonal beauty of historic plein air work.

Exhibition – Sharon Louden: Barriers & Boundaries
Nov 21 @ 11:00 am – 11:00 am
Tracey Morgan Gallery

Tracey Morgan Gallery is pleased to present “Barriers & Boundaries,” a solo exhibition by Sharon Louden showcasing three interrelated bodies of work — paintings from The Barriers series (2023), selections from the Untitled series (2010), and a new wall installation featuring works on paper from Louden’s ongoing and current series, Barriers to Entry (2023–25). Together, these series trace Louden’s evolving vision, revealing a rich dialogue between past and present, painting and installation.

Louden’s work investigates limits—both actual and psychological—and the space in which constraint becomes possibility. The Barriers paintings evoke edges, thresholds, and the complex interplay between openness and division. The Untitled series explores fragile architectural form, color, and gentle quietness in the gestures themselves. The wall installation in Barriers to Entry transforms one of the gallery’s walls into a site of engagement, inviting viewers to navigate, literally reflect, and imagine themselves in a new environment.

Women of the Pacific Northwest
Nov 21 @ 11:00 am – 6:00 pm
Asheville Art Museum

Women of the Pacific Northwest celebrates the voices, visions and material mastery of female artists working today, with roots from this rich and progressive region. Through the execution of disparate media from bronze, steel, glass, tin, plaster, mylar, printmaking, hair nets, cloth, rubber, wax to paint, these artists have achieved inventive, creative practices originating from critical, generative, inquisition of natural, social or subliminal forces. This exhibition highlights a group of female artists working in diverse media creating art that explores connections to place, whether sociological, environmental or spiritual, in a region supportive of equality, ecology and enterprise. These artists are among today’s pioneers, interpreting universality through personal observation and inventing poetic, transcendent works inspiring greater, pluralistic understanding, connecting us to one another and to the world around us.

Featured artists:

Victoria Adams, Drie Chapek, Jaq Chartier, Susan Dory, Betsy Ebys, Ann Gardner, Emily Gherard, Estuko Ichikawa, Lisa Jarrett, Brenda Mallory, Wendy Red Star, Katy Stone, Susan Zoccola, Marie Watt, and Julie Speidel.

27th Annual Voorhees Family Art Show and Sale
Nov 22 @ 10:00 am – 5:00 pm
The 27th and final Voorhees Family Art Show and Sale will be held on Saturday, November 22, 2025, 10:00 am to 5:00 pm and Sunday, November 23, 2025, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm at 55 Woodward Ave in the Norwood Park neighborhood in Asheville. After many years of holding this family show – 21 held in Asheville – this finale will be a celebration of art, connection, and community.
 This weekend art show and sale is free and open to the public. This show will feature new artwork created by eight Voorhees family members and two guest artists. The event will be hosted again in the home of Susan Voorhees. Meet this extraordinary family of artists known throughout North Carolina and the Southeast.
 The family is continuing the tradition of supporting a local nonprofit. Over the years, the family has raised nearly $23,000 and supported 8 local organizations, including MANNA FoodBank and Open Hearts Art Center. The 27th event will feature a fundraiser to benefit Save Beacon Village, a newly formed nonprofit. Hurricane Helene’s lasting effects on WNC have been devastating for so many. David’s daughter Catherine Wood and her family lost their house to Helene flooding in Swannanoa. Thankfully, they evacuated safely. The Wood’s Beacon Village neighborhood was one of the hardest hit areas in Western NC. The Wood family will be moving back into their rebuilt house this fall. Many neighbors are not so fortunate, and this year’s fundraiser is another opportunity to support these recovery efforts. More details on our website: www.voorheesfamilyart.com
