We’re incredibly grateful to Asheville Drag Brunch for hosting another unforgettable fundraiser in support of Open Hearts Art Center! 💛

This marks their fifth event supporting us, and it’s always such a fun time! Their most recent event, the SOLD OUT Asheville Drag BOO-runch this past weekend, helped raise $700 for Open Hearts, and we couldn’t be more thankful! 🥰

A huge thank you to the incredible entertainers, Nova Jynah, Jasmine Summers, and Milo Mawile, along with the entire Asheville Drag Brunch cast and crew, for making it all possible! Special thanks also to Banks Ave. Bar and Biscuit Head (South) for helping make the event such a success.

Here’s to many more opportunities to experiencing the fun in fundraising together! Also, if you haven’t checked out an Asheville Drag Brunch event you’re missing out! They are the best! ❤️👻❤️

Mountain views and animal friends! 🏔️🐻 Over the past few weeks, Open Hearts Artist Josh and OHAC Staff Casie have enjoyed Community Networking outings to Pisgah Inn for a stroll and beautiful Blue Ridge Parkway views, and to the WNC Nature Center to see some of the animals, including baby bears, sheep, donkeys, and bobcats!

Community Networking takes artists beyond the studio, with staff support to explore their interests, practice independence, and connect with our beautiful WNC Community. We love seeing where these adventures take Josh and Casie! 💗
