Boone sits high in the Blue Ridge, a college mountain town where Appalachian State students and old-time music traditions share the calendar. An Appalachian Summer Festival brings a respected month of concerts, theater, and visual arts to campus each July, while the Jones House hosts free community concerts on its downtown lawn through the summer. Horn in the West, an outdoor Revolutionary War drama, has run since 1952. The town sits in the heartland of mountain string music — Doc Watson grew up just down the road in Deep Gap — and pickers still gather informally around King Street. Ski season keeps the bars and stages busy through winter.
