Asheville Symphony Orchestra

This video was produced by the Asheville Symphony in partnership with the Asheville Art Museum with support from the Asheville Area Arts Council. In the summer of 2020, protests broke out in cities around the country, including Asheville, N.C., to stand in solidarity with the black community following the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others. At that time, dozens of murals honoring the importance of the moment sprang up across downtown Asheville. This project is meant to document these public works of art and this historic time.
