As of this date, December 16, 2024, some of the roads in and around Asheville City are still impassable and are closed to traffic as a result of damage from Hurricane Helene. The directions outlined below will bring you to the workshop site using one of two main roads in Asheville, Biltmore Avenue or McDowell Street, both of which are open. This information will be updated as road conditions improve.

From either Biltmore Avenue or McDowell Street,

1. Turn on Hospital Drive (left from Biltmore Avenue or right from McDowell).
2. At the first red light, turn onto Victoria Road (left coming from Biltmore Avenue, right coming from McDowell)
3. Turn right onto Genevieve Circle (you will see Ivy Gym on the right side, a large red brick building that looks like a church)
4. Just past Ivy Gym on the right is a large parking lot.  Park where you like.
5. The door we will be using is on the SIDE of Ivy Gym by the parking lot, closest to Genevieve Circle. A sign will be outside the door
