SUMMARY:Musical Feast: Bison and Camels and Watusi …Oh My!
DESCRIPTION:This event is SOLD OUT. \nFor a most unusual Musical Feast experience\, consider spending a day on a working farm\, surrounded by the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. Located in Leicester about fifteen minutes from downtown Asheville\, the Dr. King Carolina Bison Farm is home to a variety of animals –American Buffalo (Bison)\, rare Black Bison\, rare White Bison\, milking Camels\, African Watusi\, North American Elk\, White Tailed Deer\, and Himalayan Yak. \nYou will be transported through the fields on a tractor-pulled trailer so as to “get up close and personal” with the animals as they graze. You may be able to hand feed the Bison. Children should find this particularly exciting. \nAfter the tour of approximately ninety minutes\, Mike Ellington\, the manager\, will tell you all about the farm business\, the benefits of bison over beef and he will be prepared to answer your questions about any and all of the animals. \nThe experience would not be complete without sampling grilled bison burgers and hot dogs. The meat\, of course\, will be supplemented by condiments and the usual picnic fare. \nDon’t miss this Feast – a party for grown-ups and kids alike. This is your chance to get out in the country for a great new family activity! \nNote: All attendees will be required to sign a liability waiver upon arrival at the farm.

SUMMARY:Musical Feast: A Minor Miracle
DESCRIPTION:Asheville is privileged to be home to the Basilica of St. Lawrence\, a Roman Catholic Church\, designated a Minor Basilica by the Holy See in 1993. To quote from the church’s brochure\, “The term Basilica is a special designation given by the Holy Father to certain churches because of their antiquity\, dignity\, historical importance or significance as a place of worship.” \nBasilica designer Rafael Guastavino was engaged by George Vanderbilt to lend his expertise to the construction of the Biltmore House. He stayed in the area and\, working with architect Richard Sharp Smith\, brought this splendid Spanish Renaissance building to fruition. \nTo learn all these details and more\, take a tour through this magnificent building with Basilica lead docent Diane Wright. This will be a feast for the senses\, and a genuine feast as well because\, following the tour\, you are invited to take a short walk (or drive if you wish) to the home of Ellen and Dave Nutter (address will be provided to attendees via email). Here on this shaded street in Montford\, you are invited for lunch on the veranda of their gracious hundred-year-old house. Your hosts have planned a delectable lunch featuring Prosecco\, Salad Niçoise and a dessert of flan with strawberries. \nDon’t miss this special opportunity to see and learn more about Asheville’s unique landmark while enjoying another special Musical Feast.

It feels far away and remote\, but is actually only ten miles from downtown Asheville\, and easily accessible. Constructed of cedar and stone\, the Inn was created in 1998 by Nat and Anne Burkhardt to provide a retreat where folks can enjoy a home away from home. \nAs a guest of this Musical Feast\, you are invited to enjoy a glass of wine while exploring the Inn and grounds. Then partake of a delicious chicken salad luncheon complete with soup and dessert. Afterwards\, Jeff Curtis\, of Weaverville’s Curtis Wright Outfitters\, will again demonstrate his beautiful raptors. Jeff\, one of a few licensed falconers in Western North Carolina\, is a knowledgeable speaker. Not only will you meet his birds; you will be entranced by his love of the ancient Sport of Kings. \nMenu: Ginger-Carrot Soup\, Chicken Salad with Grapes and Pecans\, Marinated Asparagus\, Deviled Eggs\, Cheddar-corn Muffins\, Strawberry Dessert. \n

SUMMARY:Musical Feast: Pinball Wizards Want More!
DESCRIPTION:Take off your jacket\, loosen that tie\, roll up your sleeves and challenge your friends. The Pinball Museum Musical Feast is back by popular demand. It’s even better now with over 70 games versus the museum’s original 27. As we discovered at the first feast\, many of us have fond memories of pinball machines and video games in arcades\, convenience stores or drug stores\, or in a local bar. If you grew up loving the sound of the bells ringing and the balls clicking off the flippers\, you can now revisit that thrill. Here is an opportunity to return to the past and play games the “old” way. For those of you who have never played\, come and find out just how much fun it can be (there were several converts last time). \nYour ticket price includes unlimited play time on all the machines. And to add to the fun of the evening with friends\, there will be great food: pizza of course\, sandwiches\, popcorn – accompanied by beer\, sodas and water. \nMENU: Pizza\, sandwiches\, popcorn\, beer and sodas
