Praktische Infos

Die Clingman Avenue ist die Hauptverkehrsstraße im River Arts District, etwa 1,6 km von der Innenstadt entfernt und mit dem Fahrzeug oder zu Fuß erreichbar. Das Parken kann im Sommer manchmal eine Herausforderung sein, und fast alle Geschäfte sind tagsüber geöffnet - während die Abende praktisch menschenleer sind.

Things to Know Before You Go

  • The RAD is the perfect place for creative visitors to spend a day in Asheville.
  • Wear layers and comfortable walking shoes—the studios are spread out and parking is limited so you are likely to spend some time walking between locations.xa0
  • An interactive online map (also available at most locations within the district) makes it easy to find your way around the neighborhood and pick which studios to visit.
  • Pick out local arts and crafts to take home and most locations can ship it for you so you don’t have to haul it around for the rest of your trip.

When to Get There

While many studios and shops are open daily, if you want to see the district at its liveliest, visit on Saturdays—especially the second Saturday of the month, when you can find additional demonstrations, refreshments, and festivities. If you are in the area in the fall, head to the RAD for the Annual Fall Studio Stroll (held the second weekend of November).
