Fri, Mar 13-Sat, Mar 14, 10am-5pm, Thistle and Oak will host designer Mack Weldon as part of their Spring 2026 Trunk Show series. For Mack Weldon, clothes are more than a way of dressing—they’re a way of living. Blending an appreciation for timeless styles with a modern approach to comfort, their menswear is designed to help you move through the day with confidence. Find your favorite items from jackets and blazers to hoodies and joggers to t-shirts and underwear.
Thistle and Oak in Fearrington Village hosts trunk shows that offer one-on-one time with designers and provide opportunities to shop beyond their in-store offerings. Trunk Shows give you the chance to see the entire collection, not just what they bring in for the store, so it is the only time 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. Fearrington Village is part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail. See more events at Fearrington Village.

Tours are for adults only (guests ages 18 years and older). Twilight tours are a more intimate experience to meet CTR’s animals. During these tours, guests are the only visitors in the sanctuary. The day’s work is done, and the guests have the sanctuary all to themselves. Enjoy a quiet evening with the cats, and you might just be lucky enough to be serenaded by the lions! After all, they are still wild animals! As with all their tours, they cannot guarantee what the cats will do, but it’s hard to have a bad evening with the animals.
The 2026 schedule will begin on Sun, Mar 8, and run through Sat, Oct 31. The timeframe provided in this event listing is an estimate – please check your tickets for the exact time slot. Your Twilight Tour will last for about 1 ½ hours. Please arrive 15 minutes early. Trained volunteer tour guides will walk you through the animal sanctuary. You will learn about the various species living at Carolina Tiger Rescue and the challenges they face in the wild, as well as the difficulties they encounter in captivity. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and take photos, but please note that there will be no physical contact with the animals.
Advance tickets are required for attendees (no walk-ins available). Tours are offered from April to October on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings, rain or shine. The cost is $32 per person, and a maximum of 25 people may attend each tour. Tickets are available 8 weeks before your visit.

Wheelhouse Music Sessions: A Different Thread
2026-03-13 19:00 - 21:00 | Fair Game Beverage Company, 192 Lorax Lane, Pittsboro, NC, 27312, United States
Join The Plant and Fair Game Beverage Company in Pittsboro’s new listening room for Wheelhouse Music Sessions: A Different Thread on Fri, Mar 13, 7pm-9pm.
Some things are just meant to be. Alicia Best (US) and Robert Jackson (UK) met while busking on the cobbled streets of Ireland and discovered both musical and personal harmony. In the decade since forming A Different Thread, Best and Jackson have taken their act on the road, touring over a dozen countries, supporting artists such as Milk Carton Kids and Jody Stephens (Big Star), and garnering critical praise from the likes of Folk Radio UK, which hailed the duo as “warm, deep songwriters that have drank from the well of 20th century tradition.”
Their sound is transcontinental, blending Jackson’s British folk rock background with Best’s North Carolina-bred alt-country melodies. Informed by their life experiences (navigating visas, vanlife, love across oceans) and liberal commentary on both environmental and social justice topics. While inspired by artists such as Gillian Welch, The Avett Brothers, and John Prine, A Different Thread maintains a distinct sound of its own.
Come early to sip and shop the Chatham Beverage District, part of the Chatham County Craft Beverages & Country Inns Trail, with local beers from bmc brewing, wines and ciders from Starrlight, spirits from Fair Game, and sake from Koshu. Local dining available at Kingston 99 Kitchen and Ta Contento.
