News and Events

Even though the name of what is now being called the Skyland Performing Arts Center may have changed in recent weeks, the quality of performances hasn't. Formerly the Blue Ridge Performing Arts Center, the stage's name now honors the historic building in which it is housed while remaining as modern and world-class as possible.

Located in downtown Hendersonville, NC, the center is just minutes from gated community Fox Run Preserve, which offers residents unparalleled access to exciting events and activities while also ensuring their privacy and peace of mind at home. A unique venue, the Skyland Performing Arts Center can be found in the historic Skyland Hotel building, providing a charming backdrop for visiting and local performing artists.

Visitors to and residents of Western North Carolina will also love the backdrop, and the juxtaposition of the town's history with its passion for offering culturally enriching opportunities makes Hendersonville a great Valentine's Day destination. This holiday, the Skyland Performing Arts Center is joining in on the fun by presenting music fans with a concert by singer/songwriter Danny Schmidt. The Austin Chronicle reviewed the Texas resident's music by saying that he "is spoken of in reverent tones, drawing comparison to Leonard Cohen, with a poetry that breathes naturally and without pretension." His folksy style brings subtly to his lyrics, which carry the same profundity of Dylan's and which make him an ideal performer for an evening out with someone special.

Before they enjoy this downtown event, visitors will also enjoy the gourmet restaurants and wine and chocolate shops. And if Hendersonville is your destination this February 14th, chances are you'll have more than a great evening out with friends; you'll fall in love with the area, too. Fortunately, Fox Run Preserve is happy to help you with your home and homesite needs.
