Something extraordinary is coming to Asheville this winter! The North Carolina Arboretum and Explore Asheville are elated to announce the arrival of Trolls: A Field Study. Visiting on their first North American excursion, these twelve interactive troll sculptures will explore the Arboretum, embarking on a curious journey to learn about humankind.
Produced by Imagine in collaboration with Danish artist Thomas Dambo, these friendly and fanciful sculptures evoke a sense of wonder and intrigue as they study our small, intricate and inventive ways of life in Western North Carolina. Standing seven to nine feet tall and lovingly described by the artist as “Baby Trolls”, the creatures are crafted from materials like fallen branches, wooden pallets and twigs.
Through their observations, the trolls reveal a fresh perspective on what makes us human, sparking curiosity and laughter in visitors of all ages.
Only cost is the parking fee. No other admission fees.

In the intimate setting of a small music hall, the Foothills String Quartet takes the stage (2 violins, viola and cello) – a smooth blend of sound that is as delicious as a café latte on a cold morning. The Foothills String Quartet will delight your ears, spark your brain cells, and awaken your inner diva. With no conductor, Chamber Music players respond to each other in real time, listening, reflecting and adapting. And the audience gets to listen in on this intimate conversation.
Everyone is invited to visit the art displayed at the Gallery before or after the concert. Concert, art gallery and parking – absolutely FREE!

The concert features an ethereal and emotive selection of musical compositions with themes along French Impressionism, contrasts of darkness and light, hope and despair. This experience features two selections by Claude Debussy; Reverie and Clair de Lune. Lili Boulanger’s D’un matin de Printemps brings the joy of a spring morning. Hector Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique Movements II and IV, are inspired by his intense and unrequited love and despair. Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s Pathetique Movement II, is graceful and poetic against Movement IV, a deeply mournful lament. Concertgoers will bask in a musical journey inspired by dreams and visions.
