This week, historian Mills Kelly’s love affair with the Appalachian Trail started when he was a boy scout. Also, the region is known for exporting coal, but it’s losing people, too. And, Cuz’s Uptown Barbeque in southwestern Virginia fuses Asian ideas with Appalachian comfort food.
Two Mountain Stage events scheduled for May have been canceled to comply with CDC guidelines regarding public gatherings. Refund details are below. We will work to reschedule each of the artists as soon as possible.
Tickets to May 10 purchased through Eventbrite will be automatically refunded. Please allow up to 7 business days for the refund to be credited to the account used to purchase tickets. Our local box office Taylor Books has closed as a COVID-19 prevention measure, therefore refunds for tickets purchased at that location cannot be offered at this time. If you purchased your tickets at Taylor Books, or directly from Mountain Stage staff at a live event, please send a photo of the tickets (including the full barcode), along with your mailing address, to live@mountainstage.org. We will send a gift certificate via U.S. Mail in the coming weeks, for an amount equivalent to the tickets purchased.
