Smith’s presentation, “Coming of the Roads: Songs and Stories,” will begin at 5:30 p.m. in the auditorium of WCU’s Mountain Heritage Center.
A singer who accompanies herself on dulcimer, guitar and psaltery, Smith has worked as a classroom teacher, a music instructor at the John C. Campbell Folk School, and an organizer of events such as the Bluff Mountain Music Festival at Hot Springs. She is the recipient of numerous awards for her music and research, including Mars Hill College’s Bascom Lamar Lundsford Award and the North Carolina Folklore Society’s Brown-Hudson Award.
