Check out the new Black Cultural Heritage Trail!
Black Cultural Heritage Trail presents sites and stories of Asheville’s Black community in three routes – Downtown, Southside, and River – that each take about 10-15 minutes to complete.
Trail markers are styled with Sankofa birds, meant to encourage the thought, “Take lessons from the past to build a brighter future.”
We’ve simplified our ad offerings
The rate for a monthly digital or audio ad is now just $100. And, if you purchase more than one ad at a time, each additional ad is just $75.
