Meander in May

Meander in May, set for 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 18, will take place throughout downtown. This free, self-guided event, the product of Highlands Chamber of Commerce and Visit Highlands, NC, brings live musical performances, artists, craftspeople, and fun demonstrations to locations across the town.

That means you’ll discover music from bluegrass to jazz, and artists displaying their talents in jewelry making, painting, woodworking, photography, plein air painting and more. These musicians and artists will be situated all over town. Residents and visitors are encouraged to watch, listen, engage, and indulge in other offerings along the way. Participants will be provided with an event map to go and seek out their favorite artist/musician.

The day is capped by a concert at Kelsey-Hutchinson Founders Park at 6 p.m. And in keeping with the theme of walking, make sure you’re wearing comfy shoes!
