The new issue of NC Living has arrived and it is a celebration of both monumental and everyday successes. We delight in the finer things that mark these moments, such as the exquisite Billecart-Salmon champagne featured in these pages—a perfect accompaniment to any celebration. In the spirit of timeless elegance, we also explore the resurgent allure of pearls, those enduring gems of the sea.
Architecture and design hold a special place in our hearts, highlighted by the splendid restoration of Notre Dame—a beacon of resilience and artistry. In honor of Women's History Month, we are proud to profile two remarkable women from Western North Carolina whose contributions have left an indelible mark on the world. For those planning a visit to the Plateau, we've spotlighted two local eateries that promise to enrich your stay, along with exciting upcoming events at the Bascom in Highlands.
