SUMMARY:Comedy for Community supporting Helpmate
DESCRIPTION:Locals supporting locals is the heart of Asheville.\nComedy for Community brings all your favorite local comedians together each week at Catawba Brewing to support the town we love through a variety of local charities and organizations. This month we are supporting Helpmate!\nCome laugh and learn and support your neighbors. \nHelpmate began as a task force of the Buncombe County Commission on the Status of Women in 1978. Our mission and goals have been consistent ever since; to support survivors\, educate our community about healthy relationships and to create systems that are responsive to survivors’ needs. Helpmate was incorporated in 1981 and staffed by volunteer advocates who established a safe house network. Among our first volunteer advocates was former Representative Wilma Sherrill\, who was later instrumental in reforming NC’s domestic violence laws. \nOur emergency shelter program started with a small apartment in 1981 and a second apartment a year later. In 1985\, we bought a house and replaced with a larger home 5 years later. During this period\, Helpmate was instrumental in the formation of additional organizations serving local victims\, including the former Interlace transitional housing program and My Sister’s Place in Madison County. Helpmate became established as a statewide leader in the work to address violence against women\, and was among the first members of the NC Coalition Against Domestic Violence. \nIn 2006\, Helpmate launched a capital campaign to purchase our current emergency shelter\, which houses 225 adult and child victims who are in imminent danger each year. In the years since\, we have seen remarkable growth. We helped lead a systemic overhaul in 2013\, which helped survivors access Helpmate’s services in record numbers. Helpmate now serves 80% more victims\, answers triple the number of hotline calls and forms 5 times as many safety plans as we did in 2012. The most visible evidence of this collaboration is the Buncombe County Family Justice Center\, which co-locates advocates\, law enforcement\, prosecution\, child protection\, legal aid\, childcare and medical services into one safe location. We also now offer several collaborative evidence-based programs\, such as the Lethality Assessment Protocol\, in which law enforcement connects victims to our hotline immediately from crime scenes. We also offer Safe and Together\, a program with Child Protective Services to respond to co-occurring domestic violence and child maltreatment. \nWe believe in the power of prevention to save lives. Helpmate has worked with Our VOICE\, Mountain Child Advocacy Center\, Pisgah Legal Services\, and a community-based task force to implement the Pathways to Prevention Plan. The Plan is the first of its type in NC\, using CDC-endorsed strategies to prevent domestic violence\, sexual assault and child maltreatment. We aim to teach residents of Buncombe County how to form healthy relationships\, resolve conflicts without violence\, and respect boundaries so that we end the cycle of domestic violence. \nDoors: 6 PM\nShow: 6:30 PM\nTickets: $15.00\nPREMIUM SEATING: $20.00\nAges 16+\nDogs Welcome\nSEATED SHOW

SUMMARY:ELEMENTS OF BMC: Fiber Workshop
DESCRIPTION:ELEMENTS OF BMC is a new series that explores the fundamental parts of creative practice at Black Mountain College\, highlighting a range of artistic mediums and techniques. The series investigates the role of these elements in shaping the college’s legacy and lasting influence on contemporary art.\nAttendees will have the opportunity to explore new creative forms while learning about key artworks from the BMCM+AC Permanent Collection\, demonstrating connections across time. For the first iteration of our ELEMENTS series\, join us for a weaving and fiber arts workshop with Maya Rosenbaum\, BMCM+AC Communications Coordinator. \nWeaving was one of the most popular subjects taught at Black Mountain College and held an important place at the heart of the College’s legendary art and design curriculum. The weaving program was started in 1934 by Anni Albers and lasted until the College closed in 1956. Weaving practices and ideas spread beyond the weaving program into other areas of the College\, engendering a broader “weaving literacy” amongst the community. The recent exhibition Weaving at Black Mountain College explored the profound influence of textile practices on BMC pedagogy. \nThe workshop is open to learners of all ages and experience levels. Participants will learn to weave on a small tapestry hand loom and will explore different fibers through touch. We will provide all of the necessary materials including hand looms\, yarn\, and tapestry needles. More experienced fiber enthusiasts are encouraged to bring their own materials\, too. As part of the workshop\, participants can explore a pop-up exhibition of selected textile objects from the BMCM+AC Permanent Collection which tell the story of weaving at BMC. This workshop will take place in the BMCM+AC library and is free and open to the public\, no registration required.

SUMMARY:R2S Volunteer Tutor Training
DESCRIPTION:Read 2 Succeed (R2S) is on a mission to help close the race-based opportunity gap through community-powered literacy programming that engages children\, families\, and community partners. \nJoin New Reading Tutor Training in January – Wednesday\, 1/15\, 22\, and 29\, 2025 from 6 PM – 8 PM on Zoom. *New tutors must complete all three days of training* \nDue to Helene\, students missed more than a month of school. Now\, more than ever\, they deserve the absolute best our community can give them to support their education!  \nWe are looking for dedicated volunteer reading tutors who are available to build a lasting relationship with a student for the entire school year\, meeting with them twice a week either during or after school. Our volunteers believe in all students’ innate ability to learn and grow as a reader and understand the role of community-powered literacy in Asheville and Buncombe County. \nLearn more and apply today at: https://www.r2sasheville.org/reading-tutor.html
