Reems Creek Pottery is a working studio where the artists also sell what they make on-site. I…read morelearned about it through an artist (IyaBlu' Inc) that was attending a downtown Asheville pottery festival. Rachel Smith opened the studio in 2015 and collaborates with 6-8 pottery artists creating anything from dishes to ornaments to vases and more. Her husband, Dana Smith also sells his custom writing instruments and kitchen utensils here. Besides the expected wooden inlay pens, he uses unique materials like pasta and oats, which are worth checking out. I always find something I like here, and prices are reasonable. It's also a great spot to pick up a gift. Hours are typically around 10-3 M-Sat but do vary.

Stairs are the only option to get to the second-floor gallery as the elevator got damaged by Hurricane Helene. Parking is on the street and in public lots. I found out about the Art in Bloom exhibit that was happening and made sure to fit it into my plans. The artwork and flower displays were upstairs. I was there the last day and they still looked amazing. I was thrilled I got to see the creativity. The staff was very friendly and welcoming here, and even provided me with a tour of the facility. The Center has performing arts so I joined the mailing list so I could find out about upcoming theatre performances and concerts. Classes and workshops are offered too. This is a great asset to the community.

Very nice people. Was invited into a painting studio along with a pottery studio. Would recommend.read more

There is one large gallery space with other studios littered throughout the building. At the far end, there is a new French Broad Chocolate Lounge factory/cafe which is a great accompaniment to an Art show. Ramp Studios throws great art openings that usually have a great turnout of people, with good food and drinks. Some of my favorite shows I've seen here have been the sculptures of Shanna Glawson and Evan Kafka's photography. Ramp Studios also sometimes hosts artist talks. There is some parking behind Astral footwear and some people park across the street in the storage units parking lot. Check this place out! Awesome stuff!

After moving unexpectedly back to Asheville from Los Angeles, we were in desperate need to get our…read more3 year old into a great preschool. We spent almost a year touring preschools in Los Angeles and then almost another year getting accepted into one of the best ones, which was in extremely high demand. In Asheville, there were fewer options comparatively. We toured several schools that had been highly regarded by different friends but as soon as we went to Roots + Wings School of Art and Design and met Ginger Huebner, the founding director, we were sold. The school was not only the perfect fit for our 3 year old and our family, but after attending a semester, it easily exceeded the ridiculously hard to get into school we were excited to attend in Los Angeles. Roots + Wings is a beautiful blend of creative art driven education with just the right amount of structure, set in a truly wonderful space to learn and grow. Throughout his first semester at Roots and Wings, our son grew so much - emotionally and intellectually. By giving him a comfortable and positive space to explore art and his surroundings, he learned problem solving, interpersonal skills with other children and teachers, and became much more independent. Most importantly, he had a blast doing it all. When we picked him up from school, he was always so excited to show and tell us all the amazing things they'd done that day. The kids created incredible art projects, had animals in the classroom, played music and had plenty of outdoor time. Our teachers were incredible - it's clear that Ginger is very careful when selecting who will be working at her school. The classrooms themselves are also beautiful. Tons of natural light fill every corner, the design and choice of every element in their classroom from the furniture to the wall colors to the flooring is spot on. Roots + Wings feels like a school you'd read about in Sweden (to be fair, the décor at Roots and Wings is Scandinavian modern). Ginger beautifully conceived our end-of-semester celebration, with all the kids artwork and projects elegantly displayed and a sweet and poignant ceremony. Overall we couldn't be happier with Roots + Wings and if you're looking for a creatively stimulating environment with just the right amount of structure for your preschool aged kids, I'm sure you'll love Roots + Wings as well. We can't wait for the next semester to start and for our other kids be old to enough to start attending!!

Current Review: Cinemark has changed their menu! One of the…read morereasons we prefer this movie theater over others is because we can enjoy a full meal at a reasonable price while watching a film. My husband and I went to the Cinemark in Asheville last week. We were delighted to see an updated menu. We tried a burger, chicken tenders and donut holes...but there are several items we are looking forward to trying! Everything was tasty and fresh! Former Review: I planned an private screening event, and the experience was wonderful from start to finish. First, I was connected with the corporate office to get the process started. I worked with Josh who was super helpful and very communicative. At the event, the local team headed up by Prosper and Tammy was amazing. Everyone who helped with the event from checking us in to taking our concession vouchers to cleaning up the theater was the best. I also compared the same package with other area theaters, and Cinemark had the best price. So...overall...a complete win!

Only caveat I would note, which unfortunately not much can be done about, is the seating itself. Because this is an older style theater, the vast majority of the seating is set up in a way that you're having to tilt your head backwards and stare UP at the screen to see the show (unlike that being reserved for the bottom couple rows that nobody sits in at a modern theater). Still a good place to go in a pinch, and again, friendly staff and service, so if you're wanting to check out the latest movie (and don't want to drive into Asheville to see it), check this place out!
