Community Information: Burnsville, NC
Whoever said small-town life was a small life never lived in Burnsville, NC. The town offers living situations and outdoor experiences that go above and beyond the norm, presenting you with many opportunities to Live the Life You Choose.
BHTV: Supporting Local Arts with HandMade In America -
Live the Life You Choose Video: Rural Living in WNC -
“Burnsville is kind of a cool place to be,” says Jamie McMahan, Yancey County Planner. “Our outdoor recreation has always been some of the best you’ll find on the east coast. The local art is some of the best in the nation. Downtown here—you can walk through the square, do a ‘360,’ look around—it’s Norman Rockwell. I mean, you can’t beat it.”
“You’re close to Asheville if you want the hustle and bustle, and if you don’t want the hustle and bustle, you’re just 35 minutes away,” says McMahan. “It’s the reason we have a lot of folks who live here, [who] both enjoy Asheville and Boone, but they want to be where life is a little slower. You can get to know your neighbors, and that’s what I think about when I think of Yancey County and Burnsville.”
“We draw a lot of people who come to Burnsville who plan other outdoor recreation,” says McMahon. “So many hiking trails. Of course, we're home to Mount Mitchell, the tallest peak east of the Rockies. Actually, 10 of the tallest peaks east of the Rockies are in Yancey County. So, a lot of outdoor recreation, a lot of people who are looking for fishing, hunting, hiking. We're ideally located sort of centrally to all those sorts of things. Burnsville is sort of the place where you can come hang out, have a coffee, do some shopping, if you’re not sweating on the trails somewhere, trying to pull a trout out of a stream nearby.”
“The retail merchants that you’ll find on Main Street are 100% independent retailers,” says McMahon. “All do a very thriving business, making it a sort of a very pedestrian friendly, very walkable, very energetic place downtown.”
“Yancey County and Burnsville are sort of going through a renaissance,” says McMahon. “The arts community here is very thriving. We're home to more artists per capita than any other place in the nation. Everything from fine arts to arts and crafts, blown glass, pottery. The Parkway Playhouse is just off of downtown, which is the longest running community theatre in North Carolina.”
“But most recently, we’ve actually had sort of a tech surge,” says McMahon. “Yancey County is also the only county in North Carolina to have 100% connectivity by fiber to the home. So no matter wherever you live in our rocky terrain here in Yancey County, because we’re pretty mountainous, you can be served with up to a full gig of service by fiber connection.”
“It’s a very wide and diverse group of folks who come here,” says McMahon. “We have a lot of native-born folks who grew up here and realize it to be the best place in the world. We have a lot of people who come here as soon as they can, as I like to put it—so, as soon as they discover Burnsville and Yancey County. So, a lot of folks who come from, really, all over the country have settled here and make it, really, a vibrant community.”
“To watch Burnsville change, as it’s changed and evolved and grown as a small town—I think it’s the ideal small town,” says McMahon. “And if you like that kind of small town life, you want to take it a little slower, a little easier—you couldn’t find a better place to be.”

Welcome to Biltmore Park.
There was a time when towns and villages developed organically so that all of life happened within walking distance. The town square was the center for all activity, whether it be for business, meeting up with friends and neighbors, or running daily errands. Biltmore Park is just that, a modern urban village with everything you need right here: incredible options for housing, shopping, dining, business, and recreation. The Asheville Regional Airport is close by, and the neighborhood is directly adjacent to I-26, making it convenient to both downtown Asheville and Hendersonville.
In addition to the condos and apartments in Town Square, there are 400 acres of single family residences, which over 550 families call home. There are smaller pockets of neighborhoods within that are grouped by similar house styles and price, and all connected by sidewalks, making Biltmore Park a wonderful community to live in. Prices start in the low $300s and go to over $3 million, and an artful blend of architectural styles are seen throughout.
“I think for us and our family, Biltmore Park is just a really easy place to live,” says Laura Carver, homeowner.
Whether you're in the mood for a date night with an elegant table for two or family pizza outing, it's all within Biltmore Park. Running behind with no time to cook dinner? You have tons of fresh, exciting options right here in your own neighborhood.
“Biltmore Park's awesome, what's there not to like?” says John Taylor, owner of O.P. Taylors toy store. “So there's a real feeling, it's just an energy that you get here. The kids are great, they come down to the toy store after school, and they hang out, and we play ping pong together and stuff. Of course there's the movie theater and Barnes and Noble and lots of restaurants and stuff, so it's a whole community. You get that whole feeling of a community.”
Thank you for joining us. For more information on how you can live, work, and play in this incredible neighborhood, stop by our office right in the heart of Biltmore Park Town Square, or go to beverly-hanks.com.

Thousand Kites in Asheville, NC
The national dialog project on the U.S. criminal justice system is gearing up in Asheville, NC.
When Dr. Scott Walters took his UNC-Asheville Theater of the Oppressed class to visit the Appalachian media arts organization Appalshop, he started a snowball effect. It was there, in the coal-mining town of Whitesburg, Kentucky, he would meet Amelia Kirby and Nick Szuberla, two filmmakers making an exposé (Up the Ridge) about nearby supermax prison Wallens Ridge. A year later he would serendipitously run into Kirby at an AlternateROOTS conference, where the cheerful, brown-haired activist handed him a script, a play that was part of an expansive project she, Szuberla, and a group called Roadside Theater were working on. They called it Thousand Kites, after a prison slang term.
The script for Thousand Kites was partly based on the rants, prayers, shout-outs, complaints, poems, and monologues Szuberla and Kirby received, when, inspired by the stories they were unearthing for Up the Ridge--the two began a prisoner radio show. The broadcast reached both Wallens Ridge and another area supermax, Red Onion. Letters from inmates began pouring in, and Roadside Theater's Donna Porterfield eventually synthesized this material (along with some stories recounted by both prisoner family members, and correctional officers) into a protean stage drama, one that could be performed by active communities as well as intrigued universities, conservative churches as well as radical theater groups.
These performances, beyond merely provoking that cathartic experience Aristotle mulls over in The Poetics, would be a jumping off point for explicit conversations about the American justice system.
Walters wouldn't be able to resist:...even though I was scheduled to do a different production in November, I immediately decided that the opportunity to participate in this project was too good to pass up, he scribes.
Now, according to his blog, the 49-year-old author, teacher and actor, has a song stuck in his head. One of the play's narrative devices, Heard Somebody Call My Name with its bluegrass feel and gospel intonations, written and composed by traditional musician Ron Short--follows him around with its haunting declarations: I keep having this dream, And I awake with a shout. I get to the gate and I can't get out.
Lipping the song's lyrics as he organizes a cast and crew of about 40, Walters finds himself pressed for the hours, days, weeks, it takes to deliver a good play. As with any production orchestrated in a school setting, time is short, participants busy.
Thousand Kites dramatizes a polemic the Wisconsin born theater professor feels very passionate about. So passionate that he's spent time teaching drama at Foothills State Prison and Western Youth Prison, so passionate he asked UNCA students not just to put on Thousand Kites, but to delve into the various ideas its themes uncover. They have researched the issues, lauds Walters in a recent email, and can speak very articulately about them.
The issues are many. The play's two main characters, an archetypal guard and prisoner respectively, bring up not only the human rights violations and exploitation so many of us associate with the modern prison industrial complex, but the economic and cultural ironies these institutions inspire as more and more urban, ethnic minorities are warehoused in rural prisons (financially eviscerated Appalachian towns make good targets for profiteers).
November 17th, at the Diana Wortham Theatre, Walters and his cast will attempt to bring this dynamic to the forefront of their audience's minds. My hope is that people will become aware and concerned about the effects of our prison system on everyone who is touched by it Walter's says, and that they will be motivated to express that concern through individual or group action. As opening night approaches, a few organizations have already called him up, wanting to know more about the play. Walters' hopes just may materialize.
