Bayard Wootten Photography Exhibition Reception: Light & Air, Photographs of Tryon, the Western Carolinas, and Beyond
Oct 12 – Oct 18 all-day
Tryon Arts & Crafts School

Join Tryon Arts & Crafts School in celebrating the opening of a new gallery exhibition! Bayard Wootten is celebrated as one of North Carolina’s most remarkable, versatile, and productive photographers. While she photographed throughout the state from her home base in New Bern, she spent time in the 1930s documenting life and nature in the western Carolina mountains, including Tryon. Her compelling images of our region’s past, as well as a few other locales, will be on display at Tryon Arts and Crafts School from August 24 to October 18.
The photographs presented consist of archival pigment prints made from digitizing the original negatives in the Mary Bayard Morgan Wootten Photographic Collection in the North Carolina Photographic Archives at UNC, Chapel Hill.
The opening reception, on August 23, will highlight some favorite foods of North Carolina. There will also be future lectures on Wootten by her collection’s archivist Stephen Fletcher and Dr. Lili Corbus who will re-present a lecture on women photographers in Tryon from 1890 to 1950 (including Wootten).
This exhibition is sponsored by New View Realty. Other sponsors include Biltmore Wines and Cinda Austin of Mill Spring Farm Store.

Greenville’s favorite bourbon & BBQ festival is back! This two-day celebration of Southern favorites consists of three unique events:

Taste of the Barrel: A Bourbon Dinner Soirée
Friday, November 1 | 7:00 PM​

Indulge in an unforgettable evening of culinary mastery and bourbon brilliance with “Taste of the Barrel: A Bourbon Dinner Soirée,” curated by renowned chef and South Carolina Chef Ambassador, Michael Sibert of White Wine & Butter. Embark on a tantalizing taste journey as Chef Sibert expertly crafts a five-course menu that pays homage to the rich flavors of bourbon-infused cuisine. Each dish is meticulously designed to complement and elevate the complex notes of carefully selected bourbons, creating a symphony of taste sensations that will delight the palate and ignite the senses.

Complementing Chef Sibert’s culinary creations are bourbon cocktail pairings curated by Tammy Johnson, CEO & Chief Mixologist for High Spirits Hospitality. Elevate your meal with premium spirits and homemade, hand-selected ingredients, artfully combined to harmonize perfectly with each course.

From the first pour to the final bite, “Taste of the Barrel” promises an evening of culinary enchantment and unparalleled indulgence.

Admission to this exclusive event is limited to Super VIP ticket holders only.

The Bourbon Experience
