INTRODUCTING A CREATIVE PARTNERSHIP:
EXPLORE THE WORLD, SUPPORT THE ARTS

We’re thrilled to announce a new partnership between Explore More Travel Co. and Cain Center for the Arts – uniting a passion for travel with a shared commitment to enriching our local community through the arts. Together, we’ve designed a strategic collaboration that blends cultural enrichment abroad with meaningful impact at home.

Through this partnership, travelers will have three ways to engage:

  1. Group Trips curated with the Cain Center community in mind – designed for shared experiences and exclusive access.
  2. Independent Travel with Purpose: Book a customized trip through Explore More Travel Co. and we’ll donate 5% of select trip components back to the Cain Center. We call it “Travel independently, give collectively.”
  3. Lake Norman Luxury Travel Expo at Cain Center – an inspiring evening of global travel ideas and insider access, with participating suppliers donating to support the Cain Center’s mission. This will be an annual event.

Whether you travel with a group or embark on your own adventure, now you can feel good knowing your trip gives back.
