Looking Glass Falls - One of the
most well known and often-visited of
Transylvania county's falls is Looking Glass, a
handicapped-accessible 60-foot cascade located
next to U.S. 276. The name "Looking Glass" comes
from Looking Glass Rock, where water freezes on
its sides in the winter and then glistens in the
sunlight like a mirror or looking glass. The
falls are 60 feet tall and the area is
especially beautiful during the fall season. |

The Heart of Brevard

is filled with active businesses and
professional offices; it is clean and green,
with lush trees and flowers flourishing on the
downtown streets |

7 Arts - A Fine Arts and Crafts Cooperative, is an outreach
program of the Transylvania County Arts
Council. Artist members represent a
VARIETY OF MEDIA and the
strong cultural heritage of Western North Carolina. |
Drew-Dean Gallery - Housed in what used to be the
Brevard Fire Station in 1926, the recently remodeled space at 114 West
Main has unveiled itself as one of the premier
emerging contemporary fine arts galleries in
Western North Carolina. |
Tim Murray's work encompasses a
wide range of media: drawings, paintings,
prints, and sculpture. They are linked by their
rhythmic qualities and their strength of color
and form. Frequently within a painting
there is a drawing; a piece of sculpture is, at
second glance, a drawing in wood/ceramic/metal. |
 Judith
Duff Pottery -
My goal as a potter is to communicate my vision
through the strength of the form. I work to
create beautiful, functional pieces while
seeking individual avenues for self-expression. |
Mud Dabbers - The Mud Dabbers' name was
inspired by the dirt dabbers, insects who build
their nests from mud. The smiling Mud Dabber logo, drawn by
son John at age 12, symbolizes the joy and
happiness the family hopes will be yours in the
sharing of their craft. |
