ACCOMMODATION & TRAVEL
Asheville Civic Center For Asheville Area Information visit: www.exploreasheville.com Situated within the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina, Asheville and surrounding counties represent an area rich in Southern regional folk traditions of music, dance and crafts. Natural attractions of the Southern Appalachians include the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, numerous waterfalls, white water rivers and hiking trails. At 2,200 feet (680m) Asheville has mild summer weather with highs in the 80’s and lows in the 60’s (29/18C). We suggest bringing casual clothing for summer weather and pack a light-weight jacket and/or a sweater for cooler evenings and air-conditioned meeting rooms. Workshop sessions will be held in the Thomas Wolfe Theater within the Asheville Civic Center, and all meals and poster sessions will be in the adjoining arena, all a short walk from hotels, eclectic shops, restaurants and pubs in the historic downtown area. The closing banquet will be held at Deer Park on the grounds of the Biltmore Estate. We look forward to a great meeting in Asheville!
