A Call To Support AMS in Post-Helene WNC
Dear Friends & Donors
In the wake of Hurricane Helene, Asheville Music School continues its nonprofit mission of bringing music education and healing to our community, but we need your help.
While we have worked diligently to reopen, so that we can bring music back to the hundreds of students that we serve, the storm has left many families struggling. We are not back to 100% yet, as some remain out of town or simply don’t have the economic resources to continue lessons.
Like many other area nonprofits, we are facing the economic impacts and significant fundraising challenges on all fronts — funding for our scholarship and outreach programs, as well as economic loss impacting our operating costs from the temporary closing.
This is the time of year when we normally hold in-person fundraising events. This includes a silent auction that was scheduled to support AMS programs and outreach to our community. Unfortunately, the businesses that have been our major partners (and even the business in the River Arts District that was to host our silent auction) are struggling or no longer exist.
This is why we are requesting your support to help us fully bring the music back, so that we can continue to bring the healing power of music to our community.

10/16 Update – WE ARE OPEN!
Friends, families, teachers, staff,
We hope everyone is safe and dealing with this catastrophe as best as possible. Thankfully, AMS is safe and sound, with no flooding or other damage. The building is locked and secure, and we don’t have plans yet to return to regular lessons. We want to open back up soon, but we want everyone to be safe and limit travel as much as possible.
We know there will be a lot of adapting with the lack of water, and we do want to get people back to some sense of normalcy when it’s possible. We know how helpful music can be at times like these! Please contact your private teacher to see if lessons are possible outside of the school.
Email ryan@ashevillemusicschool.org for more information.
Thank you, and be safe!
