Written By: Luke Osteen | Issue: July - 2022
All of downtown Highlands is the stage for Porchfest 2022, set for 1:00 to 6:00 P.M.Sunday, September 18.
The Center for Life Enrichment (with support from Visit Highlands NC/The Highlands Chamber of Commerce) is putting together Highlands Porchfest 2022, a one-day, family-friendly musical event that’ll see musical acts performing across the town. Because of wide community support, these performances are free.Highlands Porchfest will be held from 1:00 to 6:00 P.M. Sunday, September 18. Bands, singers, and instrumentalists are participating at no charge to showcase their talents and engage the community (though, of course, tipping is highly encouraged).Audiences will find performances all over town – The Bascom, 200 Main, Highlands Wine Shoppe, Sotheby’s, First Presbyterian Church of Highlands, the Croquet Lawn at Old Edwards Lodge, Town Square, Kelsey-Hutchinson Founders Park, Chambers Realty, Hudson Library, and the Highlands Performing Arts Center. “Because Highlands Porchfest will be primarily held downtown, attendees will be able to walk or bike as they move from location to location,” says Center for Life Enrichment Board Member Karen Hunt, who brought the idea for Highlands Porchfest to the board.Beyond monetary donations, CLE is looking for additional musicians and steadfast music loving volunteers to assist us the day of the event. If you’d like to help, email [email protected]or call the CLE office at (828) 526-8811.
