 Guess Who: A Costume Quest In-person Outdoor
Oct 22 @ 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm
Asheville Community Theatre

We’re flipping the script on trick or treating this year! Guess Who: A Costume Quest is an outdoor walking tour and interactive game that features costumed actors from past ACT plays and musicals. Guess who’s who, and after you do, there’s a take-home bag of candy and treats for you! This family-friendly night of fun will be held in the parking lots and surrounding grounds of Asheville Community Theatre and the Thomas Wolfe House. Tours will begin at 6:00 pm and start times will be staggered to maintain social distancing.

How will this work? Chanda Calentine explains: “You’ll walk on a path around our building and will encounter 12 different characters along the way. They’ll each share a clue or two about themselves, and you’ll try to guess who they are and which show they’re from. These are recognizable characters from our family friendly shows, and even if you haven’t seen these shows at ACT, we think you’ll still be able to make a good guess! And, at the end of the tour, we’ll have treats for you to take home.

Down Dog Yoga Outdoors Power Flow
Oct 24 @ 10:00 am – 11:00 am
Rabbit Rabbit

Down Dog Yoga Studio will lead a 50 minute all-levels yoga class, alternating between their Sculpt and Power Flow formats at the new outdoor space at Rabbit Rabbit! Classes take place outside at 10am. Rabbit Rabbit opens on Saturdays immediately after class finishes up, so feel free to stick around for a drink or to grab a taco after you work out! Rabbit Rabbit follows strict COVID safety protocols, implements social distancing at all times, including spacing around yoga mats, and requires masks to be worn when not in your personal mat space. Shoes are also required when not at your mat actively practicing during the class. Please remember to bring your mask for the time between entry and the beginning of class, and to put it back on when class ends. Thanks for your cooperation!

What to bring: A mask, your yoga mat. Sorry, no dogs at this event!

10/3 – Sculpt
10/10 – Power Flow
10/17 – Sculpt
10/24 – Power Flow
10/31 – Sculpt

– Sculpt is a low impact, high intensity beat-based class rooted in yoga. Foundational poses are met with strength training moves like jumping jacks and squats to create a full body workout.
– Power Flow offers students a well-rounded mix of vinyasa and power yoga with deepened postures at a faster pace. This class will strengthen, challenge, and cleanse the body and mind.

Note: This particular class is not a dog-friendly event series

About Down Dog Yoga:
Combining two of Asheville’s most popular pastimes, Down Dog is a new yoga studio opening later in 2020 in Asheville. As we plan for our opening, we are offering pop-up collaborations such as this around the community! Once we open, we will offer a hot yoga studio with unique classes open to all levels, and a bar allowing dogs to play and roam off leash while their owners grab a drink. Starting later this fall, Down Dog hopes to give dog owners and yogis alike the opportunity to bring their best friends along to enjoy the activities they love most.
