The Asheville Tourists are a minor league baseball team based in Asheville, North Carolina. They play in the Class A South Atlantic League and have been a farm team of the Colorado Rockies since 1994.

Asheville teams have played under the Tourists moniker in different leagues and classifications for decades, with the earliest dating to 1897. The current team has played continuously in what is now known as the South Atlantic League since 1976. They have won three league championships, first in 1984 and most recently in 2014. Previous Tourists teams won a total of four additional championships.

The Tourists play home games at McCormick Field. The park opened in 1924, renovated in 1959, and renovated again for the 1992 season. McCormick Field seats 4,000 fans, and is notable for the scoreboard which reads “Visitors” in the guest slot and “Tourists” in the home slot

The Little River Coffee Bar, Cakehead Bakeshop, and the Hub City Bookshop have been in the Masonic Temple for EIGHT YEARS this summer!
WHAT?! Eight whole years of downtown community and small business love.

It wouldn’t be possible without our local supporters and customers, so we’re throwing you (and ourselves) a free party on Saturday, August 18th.

There will be cake, live music from our many talented, performing employees, homemade ice cream espresso affogatos, raffles/ door prizes, and more! Join us!

Dark Star Orchestra returns for another two night run on the beautiful Pisgah Brewing Outdoor Stage.

Dark Star Orchestra offers much more than the sound of the Grateful Dead, they truly encapsulate the energy and the experience. It’s about a sense of familiarity. It’s about a feeling that grabs listeners and takes over. It’s about that contagious energy… in short, it’s about the complete experience and consistent quality show that the fan receives when attending a Dark Star Orchestra show.

Come cheer on the Tourists!

Revelry: Unique Downtown Events and Red Rover Booking are excited to present

This Restorative Sound Bath lead by Billy Zanski, will help to slow our breath, and shift our brainwaves. As the powerful sound waves wash over our bodies, stress and worry dissipates, and our mind’s thoughts move into the background. Focusing on the landscape of peaceful sounds helps to activate the deep intelligence within our body and spirit.

Billy opens up space for others to feel expanded, connected, and held in peace. Opening us up to a greater perspective, inviting subtle shifts and healing to happen spontaneously.

Billy Zanski is an enthusiastic teacher, musician, and “helper in healing”. Sound healing and taking percussion into the realm of therapy has become the cornerstone of his sound shop Skinny Beats in Asheville. Billy has developed a mix of rhythmic and deep harmonic frequencies, from seeking out and learning from teachers across the globe. Here are some of the instruments used for each session: planetary gongs, gemstone and crystal (alchemy) bowls, West African harp, didgeridoo, handpan, and many other special instruments.

We had so much fun the first time… so let’s do the Time Warp again…

Our Artisan members asked for it, so The Artisan is here to give it to you. Party starts at 7pm with music from Rocky Horror (and some music that fits the theme).

Then, at 9pm, we will show the Cult Classic that everyone loves. Please keep in mind that we will allow some of the traditions, but anything that will hurt our walls, floors, or other patrons is out. We will provide a list of what is acceptable.

Also, no illegal activity. Sorry, but your need to party the way you want doesn’t trump our need to be open and support our family and members. :)

***This event will be $10 for members with level Apprentice or higher and $12 for permit members. You must be a member or guest of a member to attend. Ages 21+ only.***

Popcorn will be free for our Master Craftsmen and Journeymen and sold at a charge for all other guests.
