Support Rare Bird Cultural Arts

Rare Bird Cultural Arts, a 501(c)(3), bridges rural arts access in Western NC, fostering community connection through Appalachian traditions and inclusive arts experiences. By bringing the richness of rural Appalachia to urban environments and inviting urbanites to experience the creative spirit of Appalachia firsthand, Rare Bird creates a unique exchange that deepens understanding and appreciation. This cultural bridge not only enriches both communities but also nurtures meaningful connections rooted in heritage, artistry, and the natural world.


Supporting Rare Bird means ensuring that these vital, non-scalable experiences continue to enrich our communities and foster true, lasting connections.
