Asheville Local Frequency: Community Rallies, Arts Events, and Athletic Achievements

Good morning, this is your Asheville Local Frequency for Sunday, March 29th. We're starting this morning with a look back at yesterday's major community gathering. Thousands of people took to downtown Asheville on Saturday afternoon for the third No Kings rally, part of a broader wave of demonstrations sweeping across Western North Carolina and the nation. The event brought a large and energetic crowd to Pack Square, with participants filling the streets carrying signs and chanting. Organizers featured speakers and live music throughout the afternoon, making it one of more than a dozen rallies held across the region in response to current political developments. If you were downtown yesterday, you likely noticed the increased pedestrian traffic, and we appreciate drivers who exercised extra caution in the area. Moving into what's happening around town today, there are several great options for getting out and enjoying your Sunday. Art lovers should check out the Ackland Art Museum on the UNC campus, where they're offering a guided tour called A Closer Look at the Collection starting at one o'clock this afternoon. If you're in the mood for something cinematic, the Asheville Art Museum is screening Exhibition on Screen Turner and Constable from two to four o'clock this afternoon. Tickets are twelve dollars for members and fifteen for non-members. Later this evening, if you're looking for live performance, Lump Gallery is hosting MFA 2026 Thesis Exhibitions starting at six o'clock. For those interested in something a bit more theatrical, 3:16 Community Theatre continues its Easter celebration with performances throughout the week, exploring the passion narrative with a fresh perspective. Looking back at the weekend, UNC Asheville's track and field program wrapped up their meet with strong performances across multiple events on Saturday. And congratulations to the Asheville Archery Training Center, which recently brought home thirty-one total medals from competitions, including twelve medals from a national archery championship in February and nineteen from state championships earlier this month. That's some impressive competitive success for our local athletes.
