Applications for Fall BLET Program Now Being Accepted

As communities across Western North Carolina continue to recover from the devastating impacts of Hurricane Helene, McDowell Technical Community College (MTCC) and its local agency partners are once again answering the call to provide high-quality, life-saving training at the 47th Annual McDowell Fire, Rescue, and EMS College. This year’s Fire School, which began earlier this week and will run through Sunday afternoon, will bring hundreds of emergency responders from across the region to Marion for a week of specialized, hands-on training.

McDowell Technical Community College announced today that the college’s photographic technology program will once again host its annual student gallery exhibit at McDowell Arts Council Association (MACA). This year’s exhibit, which runs from March 13th through the end of March, offers visitors a chance to experience a diverse range of photographic work from emerging student photographers — and for the first time ever, documentary films will also be featured.
