The Lexington Avenue Performance Area features interactive performances throughout the weekend and is located at the intersection of North Lexington and Walnut Streets.  Last year’s schedule included everything from zumba to hoola-hooping to many types of dance.  Capping off our performances on Friday and Saturday, we’re proud to host the Asheville Community Drum Circle with Roots of Rhythm.
