Music and the arts play a key role in Lexington. People come from across the world to visit the gallery and museum of Bob Timberlake, North Carolina’s most famous living artist, while our indigenous red clay soil provides fertile ground for potters. Arts Davidson County nurtures a thriving and diverse arts scene with year-round programming.
Music is available throughout Lexington, with an emphasis on Uptown. Breeden Insurance Amphitheater, located in the Depot District, hosts concerts for a variety of musical tastes, while High Rock Outfitters is the hippest spot to catch local and regional bands. Sophie’s Cork & Ale is another option in Uptown, with jazz, blues and easy-listening on tap. Meanwhile, on the edge of town, Childress Vineyards draws crowds for its outdoor concerts framed by vineyards.
