Tryon Fine Arts Center (TFAC) proudly presents a series of free, live-streamed music and virtual exhibition events. Because Tryon Fine Arts Center is currently closed to live audiences, Illuminations is a first-ever, virtual-only series of events.

Illuminations Through Music and Heritage

This very special artistic and cultural series celebrates the international exploration of music and heritage between students of Tryon Fine Arts Center’s Pacolet Junior Appalachian Musicians and students with the Petra National Trust in Jordan (PNT).
