The Martin-Lipscomb Performing Arts Center is a prominent venue in Highlands, North Carolina featuring independent theater and local musical acts. When the building, that was the Community Bible Church, went up for sale in 1999, the founding director of the Highlands-Cashiers Chamber Music Festival started a fund raising campaign to buy the property so the festival could have a permanent home.[1] Going strong since then the Performing Arts Center has brought over 255 performances to the southeastern Macon County area.
