Help Bring Blue Note Junction to Life: A Fundraiser

Help bring Blue Note Junction to life and support a future hub for housing, arts, wellness, and community-rooted entrepreneurship.

Join us for an inspiring evening in support of Blue Note Junction, a transformative vision for West Asheville’s Burton Street neighborhood. Blue Note Junction will bring together affordable housing, the arts, wellness, and community-driven entrepreneurship under one roof, with plans for a commercial/commissary kitchen + market, co-working + counseling, an outdoor community spa, performing arts, and retail shops.

More than a building, BNJ is designed to be a cornerstone of Western North Carolina’s entrepreneurial ecosystem and a regenerative investment in community, culture, and local prosperity.

During the event, HHF co-founder DeWayne Barton will present the Blue Note Junction vision and what it means for the future of our community. We'll introduce the Hood Huggers Foundation's work and its impact, and participants of our programs will share their stories. Guests will also enjoy live music by Destro and Virtuous, and the El Bodegon food truck will be there offering Argentinean comfort food. It'll be a chance to connect with staff, board members, partners, and supporters who are helping make this vision possible.
