The Tryon Fine Arts Center is such a treasure to have in a smaller town like Tryon. How many other rural areas can boast such high-quality acts performing on such a regular basis?
The residents of Polk County and the Foothills can because of the hard work of staff and volunteers with the Tryon Fine Arts Center. It’s encouraging and exciting to see the upgrades TFAC has in store for patrons. Can you imagine having a second intimate amphitheater in Tryon? How great will it be for the families to enjoy quality Super Saturday acts on that outdoor stage?
And what about for the elderly and disabled members of our community who might struggle to make it up the current set of stairs that lead from the Baptist church parking lot to the auditorium; this newly designed pathway, along with its corresponding landscaping, will only further ensure they always feel able to safely reach the front lobby.
We’re only briefly highlighting a few of the many exciting attributes of this project but kudos to all of those who have worked so hard to come up with a plan for the arts center that the community can really stand proudly behind.
