If you live in Asheville or you’ll be in the area on April 4, you must check out the {Re}HAPPENING. Located at Camp Rockmont at 375 Lake Eden Road, this is a multi-sensory experience that includes art, performance and food. It takes place on the grounds of the Black Mountain College Lake Eden campus.
As explained on their website, “Each year, the {Re}HAPPENING features over 80 local, regional, national, and international artists collaborating on 30+ visual art installations, new media presentations, and performances dependent upon wildly innovative visual and participatory components. As with Cage’s 1952 event, the {Re}HAPPENING is a democratizing art experience, participatory and interactive rather than hierarchical.”
