Many Xpress readers noticed the Best of WNC poll in April was missing a few important categories — music and art. That was because we decided to shine a spotlight on local music and bands, and well as arts and crafts. Those categories get their own poll this month. Now is the time to vote for your favorites, from hip-hop group and chamber music outfit to woodworker and outdoor installation artisan. Voting is open through Wednesday, June 29.
The ballot’s goal is to help us all celebrate an essential part of a wonderful place — the artists and musicians of Western North Carolina.
We invite you to complete either section or both of them, and to vote with your passion and your knowledge.
Here are the rules for the 2016 Best of WNC Readers’ Polls for Music/Bands and Crafts/Visual Arts:
• The voting period is Wednesday, June 8, through 11:59 p.m. (midnight) Wednesday, June 29.
• You must answer at least 6 categories for your ballot to be counted.
• One ballot per reader, please. We reserve the right to discard any ballot we deem fraudulent.
• Read and follow section and category instructions.
Have a problem voting? Call us Monday through Friday 9:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. at 251-1333. Or e-mail us at bestof@mountainx.com

Before you comment
The comments section is here to provide a platform for civil dialogue on the issues we face together as a local community. Xpress is committed to offering this platform for all voices, but when the tone of the discussion gets nasty or strays off topic, we believe many people choose not to participate. Xpress editors are determined to moderate comments to ensure a constructive interchange is maintained. All comments judged not to be in keeping with the spirit of civil discourse will be removed and repeat violators will be banned. See here for our terms of service.
