Art on the Mountain

Ashe County Arts Council

This year, we’re shining a spotlight on our rich musical heritage with live traditional music. From 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM, enjoy a special performance by The Crooked Road Ramblers, accompanied by students from our Junior Appalachian Musician (JAM) program. Tap your toes, join in the dancing, and immerse yourself in the lively spirit of Appalachian music.

Join us for a day of artistic celebration featuring over 20 talented local and regional artists and craft vendors. Explore a diverse array of mediums, including pottery, sculpture, fiber arts, metalwork, glass, painting, photography, and more. Witness live demonstrations in painting, fibers, and basketry, offering a unique glimpse into the creative process.

Don’t miss the Ashe County Cheese Food Truck’s exclusive Art on the Mountain Sandwich—perfect for savoring while you browse the festival.

This event is free and open to the public. Celebrate the arts with us in the heart of West Jefferson!
