Not sure where to get help for the difficulties you're facing getting by in life? Not sure how to help others with the hardships life has dealt them? Come join us at Asheville Resource Festival! We are bringing together a variety of community supports in one place to provide resources, bridge the gaps among different people, bring better understanding of the realities our neighbors face, help you help others, and keep you entertained the whole time!

Meet and learn from our poverty educators on a walk through downtown Asheville. Enjoy a delicious (and free!) dinner over a conversation about your community. Hear from local spoken word artists. Listen to live music as well as a DJ. Browse tables representing different areas of community support. Bring a friend or meet a new one here - everyone is welcome, everyone is valued, and everyone belongs in Asheville!
