![We’re sharing some updates as our museum and community recover from Hurricane Helene. Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center has water, non-potable for now, and we’re working toward reopening soon–stay tuned for updates on our hours and events. Our thoughts are with all those impacted by the storm, and we are committed to providing a welcoming space for our community to reconnect, reflect, and heal during this challenging time.
If you're able, we kindly ask you to consider donating to support BMCM+AC as we continue our mission to serve the community and preserve the legacy of Black Mountain College. You can also support us by ordering a copy of our newest publication, The Farm at Black Mountain College, now in stock online! We also encourage you to support our dear friends at Marshall High Studios, who were hit hard by the hurricane. Camp Rockmont, the home of Black Mountain College’s historic Lake Eden Campus, is also looking for volunteers to help them restore the campus on weekends.

We look forward to welcoming you back to the museum soon and continuing to serve as a hub of creativity and resilience for our community.
