When reflecting on the current state of the environment, it seems that we have entered into times of seismic sorrows. Carbon emissions, water pollution, fracking, and changing climate patterns all point to a troubling reality with serious consequences for human and non-human populations. Through weavings, installations, sculpture, and print, artists Rena Detrixhe and Tali Weinberg (Tulsa, OK) explore the complex relationship between humans and the planet, offering insights, expressing grief, and creating space for resilience and change.

In Time of Seismic Sorrows is curated by Marilyn Zapf and organized by the Center for Craft. The Center for Craft is supported in part by the N.C. Arts Council, a division of the Department of Natural and Cultural Resources.

The Haen Gallery, located in downtown Asheville, North Carolina, is proud to present their 12th Annual Lynn Boggess Exhibition. The exhibit will run through November.

Lynn Boggess is one of the most unique and noteworthy American landscape painters of the 21st Century. He resides in West Virginia, a state whose diverse mountains, forests, and rivers provide abundant inspiration for the artist’s plein air paintings. In place of brushes he uses palette knives and trowels to thickly layer the broad sweeping strokes and exquisite fine detail that capture all the colors of the seasons in rushing rivers, snow covered hillsides, and thick forest vegetation. Mr. Boggess’ work is recognized internationally for its incredible three-dimensional texture, rendered solely in oils. These remarkable paintings combine elements of Abstract Expressionism and Photorealism to create a style that is totally unique and original.

The Haen Gallery in Asheville is located at 52 Biltmore Avenue between City Bakery and Chestnut. There is a parking garage at the Aloft hotel across the street, another garage just up the hill, as well as street parking.

The gallery is open Monday through Saturday 11am-6pm & Sunday 12-5pm. For more information: 828-254-8577 or www.thehaengallery.com. Gallery contacts: Chris Foley, Director; Leslie Logemann, Gallery Manager.

With locations in Asheville and Brevard, The Haen Gallery offers the work of established artists whose distinctive and unique style sets it apart from ordinary and imitative efforts. Visit the website at thehaengallery.com.

What better way to start your week than with a triple beer release? That’s right…Our Brewer, Ian, has been brewing up a storm so we’ve got three new beers releasing Monday, November 12th.

Because a pumpkin beer isn’t our kind of a fall beer, we’ll be releasing our fall concoction, a Carrot Cake Ale. This is a SUPER LIMITED experimental brew. We’ve only got two kegs of this carrot, pineapple, vanilla, lactose, spices, and autumnal inspiration. Trust me, you’ll want more than one. 5.6% ABV.

Next, up we’ve Irony Ale IPA. This “No Coast” style IPA takes the old school approach of making an IPA actually bitter. Hopped with Columbus, NZ Cascade, and Amarillo. You hopheads will thank us for this one. 6.3% ABV.

To round out the trio, we’re bringing back 13 Paces Baltic Porter! You remember it from last year, but in case it’s new to you, it’s a rummy, plummy winter lager jammed in flavor, warms your insides, and soothes the soul. 8.5% ABV.

These beers are at Foundation only, so swing in and grab a pint on Monday!

Over the past two hundred years, Western North Carolina has evolved from a mountainous frontier known for illicit moonshine production into a renowned destination for craft beer. Follow its story from the wild days of saloons and the first breweries of the 1870s through one of the longest Prohibitions in the nation. Eventually, a few bold entrepreneurs started the first modern breweries in Asheville, and formerly dry towns and counties throughout the region started to embrace the industry. The business of beer attracts jobs, tourists and dollars, as well as mixed emotions, legal conundrums and entrepreneurial challenges. Join award-winning beer writer Anne Fitten Glenn as she narrates the storied history of brewing in Western North Carolina.

nne Fitten Glenn has been writing about and working in the beer business on and off since the 1990s. She pens a regular “Mountain Brews” article for Edible Asheville and has written for numerous other publications and outlets, including All About Beer, Smoky Mountain Living, the Asheville Citizen-Times, Mountain Xpress and CraftBeer.com. She served on the Asheville Brewers Alliance Board of Directors for almost five years and was a founding organizer of Asheville Beer Week. The History Press published her first beer book, Asheville Beer: An Intoxicating History of Mountain Brewing, in 2012.
