The gong is an ancient instrument used for transformation, healing and to entrain people to a theta brain wave state to promote well-being and balance. You are invited to experience an amazing sound resonance meditation in our Himalayan Salt Cave Sanctuary.

Breathing the clean salt air rich in negative ions deepens therapeutic benefits and profoundly supports relaxation. Reservation is required, please call us at (828) 505 1838 $45/person.

Enjoy the Hendersonville tradition at Mike’s On Main of your Christmas favorites sung by Blissing, an a capella trio from 6-7pm on November 29th.

More than three decades into his career, singer/songwriter David Wilcox continues to push himself, just as he always has. Wilcox, by so many measures, is a quintessential folk singer, telling stories full of heart, humor, and hope, substance, searching, and style. His innate sense of adventure and authenticity is why critics and colleagues, alike, have always praised not just his artistry, but his humanity, as well.

That’s not by accident; it’s very much by design. It’s the result of a man giving himself over in gratitude and service to something bigger than himself. “I’m grateful to music,” he says. “I have a life that feels deeply good, but when I started playing music, nothing in my life felt that good. I started to write songs because I wanted to find a way to make my life feel as good as I felt when I heard a great song. I don’t think I’d be alive now if it had not been for music.”

Christmas at Connemara
Musicians and storytellers, crafts and sing-a-longs, hot cider and cookies. This free festive celebration will honor Carl Sandburg and his family holiday traditions.
