This event is presented as part of DEER FREAKS…and decoys, a multi-media, multi-layered project of Swannatopia responding to The Farm at Black Mountain College exhibition. Warren Wilson College started as the Asheville Farm School in 1894, became a coed junior college in 1942, and transitioned to the four-year Warren Wilson College in the mid 1960s. Collaborations between the Asheville Farm School and Black Mountain College form an important part of The Farm at Black Mountain College story.
