Whether you are starting or adding to your collection, it is a joy to be around Ann and her stunning pieces, jewelry that goes with everything, layers beautifully, and items you will treasure for a lifetime. Not only is she a true talent with impeccable taste, but she’s lovely. They will have her for a three-day trunk show event, so whether you swing by to start your own collection, add to it, or just say hello, it will be a fun weekend!
Dovecote Home and Garden, Nest, and Sprout in Fearrington Village hosts trunk shows that afford one-on-one time with designers and opportunities to shop beyond their store offerings. Trunk Shows give you the chance to see an entire collection, not just what they bring in for the store, which means it is the only time that some sizes and colors are available in certain styles. Chatting with a rep or designer – the experts – gives you the best insight into what styles and sizes are perfect for you, so you can be sure you’re getting pieces that you’ll treasure forever.

ARTIST BIOS
Susie Crate likes to think she has come full circle in her storytelling and singing. After a decade of singing and storytelling in the Piedmont Triangle from the early 1980s to the early 1990s, Susie began traversing the globe, mainly in the direction of Siberia, where she ultimately built an academic career researching cultural adaptations to change overall and specifically to climate change. Now she has returned to her home in Bynum to begin the next chapter of her life, bringing stories and songs both old and new.
Known around the world for his clawhammer banjo playing, Joe Newberry is also an influential guitarist, singer, and songwriter. The Gibson Brothers’ version of his song “Singing As We Rise,” featuring guest vocalist Ricky Skaggs, won an IBMA “Gospel Recorded Performance” Award. With Eric Gibson, he shared an IBMA “Song of the Year” Award for “They Called It Music.” A longtime and frequent guest on A Prairie Home Companion, he was a featured singer on the Transatlantic Sessions 2016 tour of the U.K. with fiddler Aly Bain and Dobro master Jerry Douglas, and at the Transatlantic Session’s debut at Merlefest in 2017.

The American Revolution: Life on the Home Front in Chatham County
2025-11-02 14:00 - 15:30 | Chatham County Historical Museum, 9 Hillsboro St, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Join the Chatham County Historical Association for The American Revolution: Life on the Home Front in Chatham County on Sun, Nov 2, 2pm-3:30pm at the Chatham County Historic Courthouse and Museum.
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, most folks think first about the battles that took place during that war. But the majority of people living through the Revolution were not fighters. Their focus was on day-to-day survival, complicated by shortages of food, salt, and currency, as well as the knowledge that the war could arrive at their doorstep at any moment.
Jim Morgan is the creator of the website AmRevNC, a website dedicated to the history of the American Revolution battles that took place in North Carolina. He is a writer and journalist with a fierce interest and deep knowledge of the American Revolution and will explain what life was like in Chatham County for these “other revolutionaries” on the home front during the seven long years of war.
All are welcome to attend this free event. This event takes place indoors. The historic courthouse meets federal ADA requirements. No pets allowed. Please leave your furry friends at home. Free parking is available across the street at the new Chatham County Justice Center.
This event is part of our Chatham Celebrates America 250 initiative. See more America 250 events. See more Chatham County Historical Association events.

Y12SR Meetings with Jaime Warkonyi
2025-11-02 16:00 - 18:00 | Yoga Garden, 184 East Street, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Join Yoga Garden PBO for Y12SR Meetings with Jaime Warkonyi hosted on the first Sunday of every month, 4pm-6pm. Y12SR is an innovative addiction relapse prevention program that combines the wisdom of yoga with the practical tools of 12-Step recovery programs. Guided by its theme “The Issues Live In the Tissues,” Y12SR meetings are held across the U.S. and internationally, rapidly becoming a recognized component of addiction recovery treatment centers.
Each meeting consists of both a 12-Step-inspired sharing circle and a guided yoga practice, incorporating movement (asana), breathwork (pranayama), and meditation—an approach described as “taking it to the mats.” The yoga practice is designed to be accessible to individuals of all body types and experience levels. Open to those struggling with addiction as well as their loved ones, Y12SR serves as a complement rather than a substitute for traditional addiction recovery programs. Committed to the principles of safety and anonymity, Y12SR provides a supportive space for healing and connection.
Handicapped parking and a ramp are available in the back of the Yoga Garden studio. By donation, a portion of proceeds will be donated to Second Bloom of Chatham. See more events at Yoga Garden PBO.

L'Assiette Provençale French Wine Dinner at Vino!!
2025-11-02 18:00 - 20:00 | Vino!! Wine Shop, 89 Hillsboro Street, Suite A, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Explore authentic French food and wine at Vino!! Wine Shop’s L’Assiette Provençale French Wine Dinner on Sun, Nov 2, 6pm-8pm. They are ecstatic to announce that Chef Baptist Knaven, former owner and Chef at Provence in Carrboro, has agreed to cook their upcoming wine dinner. He’s teaming up with Tyler Morgan of Authentique Vin to craft a truly unforgettable French experience in honor of the famous French Chef Jacques Pépin, whose 90th birthday is approaching.
Born and raised in the Netherlands, Chef Baptist came to the US in 2003 to open Café Zito in Morehead City. It was the first Mediterranean/Tapas-style bistro on the southern coast and became immensely popular. In 2011, he moved from the coast and took over the small French restaurant, Provence, in Carrboro. Chef Baptist developed it into one of the finest French bistros around, earning many accolades in magazines, guest appearances at various local restaurants, teaching classes at Southern Season, and a five-time guest chef at the Beaufort Wine and Food Festival. It became a top-five “Sunday Brunch” restaurant on OpenTable’s national list of best restaurants. In 2023, Chef Baptist sold the restaurant to focus on another passion – dog training and competition. He became a customer at Vino, and Anna convinced him to cook one more time for this special event!

Join Katty Korner Downtown Market for Beaded Plants: Krafts and Koffee on Mon, Nov 3, 2pm-4pm, a hands-on, creative afternoon sipping warm coffee and making plants that never wilt (and never need watering). Using wire strands, glass beads, sparkling accents, and playful charms, you’ll design a one-of-a-kind plant that reflects your style. Each creation will be finished in a ceramic pot with floral greenery—no green thumb or crafting experience required. Just bring yourself and get ready to relax, play, and create a plant you’ll never have to worry about keeping alive.
This event is hosted by My Depiction Addiction. Instructor Jessica Rigsbee provides clear written, visual, and verbal instructions along with carefully curated supplies so that you can focus on enjoying the process. Tengo direcciones en español también. You’ll learn the basics, have space to make it your own, and always have Jessica nearby for guidance. These events aren’t about perfection—they’re about experimenting, connecting, and giving yourself permission to relax, play, and leave with something you’re proud of.
