Hopefully this year we can bring in a lot of folks from out town to come stay the weekend, eat in our restaurants, have a beer, buy some artwork and help Asheville get back on our feet” - Graham Sharp, Steep Canyon Rangers In addition to the music, the Community Concert will also feature a variety of local food vendors, a marketplace with unique handmade goods, and a gear swap presented by Second Gear, giving attendees the chance to exchange gently used outdoor gear.
