The annual Candlelight Service honors area citizens and organizations that have dedicated themselves to the cause of social justice.

On MLK Day of Service, we’ll tackle projects around the Burton Street community like helping out elder neighbors, projects in the community gardens, making art, picking up garbage, and more. We’ll provide snacks and food, hot and cool drinks, art supplies, tools, and music. You bring full water bottles, work gloves, and warm layers ’cause the weather can be hit or miss.

Gather at the main Peace Garden (47 Bryant St.), sign in, and we’ll put you to work!

UNC Asheville presents “Our History, Reimagined,” a Martin Luther King Jr. Commemoration Address from keynote speaker Clint Smith in Lipinsky Hall on Wednesday, January 18. This event is free and open to all, no tickets are required.

The United States is a country of great opportunity and economic mobility, but we must wrestle with how certain opportunities are contingent on different facets of one’s identity, and how the history of violence and exploitation helped to generate its economic foundation. The United States has freed millions around the world from despots and genocide, and we must wrestle with this same country’s pervasive history of barbarous imperialism. In a conversation exploring Civil Rights movements over the decades, as well as how memorials tie into our perceptions and collective memories of these eras, Clint pushes the audience to wrestle with the complicated truths about the country we live in and helps crystalize how this history has shaped the contemporary social, political, and cultural landscape of our world today.

Clint Smith is a staff writer at The Atlantic. He is the author of the narrative nonfiction book, How the Word Is Passed: A Reckoning With the History of Slavery Across America, which was a #1 New York Times bestseller, winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Nonfiction, the Hillman Prize for Book Journalism, the Stowe Prize, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize, and selected by the New York Times as one of the 10 Best Books of 2021.

He is also a former National Poetry Slam champion and a recipient of the Jerome J. Shestack Prize from the American Poetry Review, as well as the host of the Youtube series Crash Course Black American History.

This event is part of UNC Asheville’s Equity & Arts Series.

Step 1: Pick up your heart at the welcome desk as you enter the Museum.

Step 2: Fall in love with an artwork and make it official by placing your heart on the floor in front of your favorite.

Step 3: Take a photo of your selection with your heart included and share your love on social media with the tags #heartsforart and @ashevilleartmuseum for a chance to be featured on the Museum’s social media pages.

Step 4: Next, escort your date up to the rooftop Perspective Café and Sculpture Terrace to enjoy delicious beverages, local food, delightful conversation, and dramatic views.

Step 5: End your very memorable date by presenting your companion with an annual Museum Membership, showing them you’d love to share many more magical moments moving forward.
