To promote place-based learning using downtown Asheville to highlight Asheville’s unique Jewish history. That is, to show students the power, joy and importance of understanding that their community also created the history of the place we all call home. Sharing this history with people who are not Jewish is equally as valuable to emphasize our interconnection. Diverse people of many different backgrounds and cultures contributed to the success of Asheville, the Jewish community was just one of them. This walking tour is a history reveal, history visible if you just know where to look.
