Spirit of Asheville

Garden & Gun and Explore Asheville hosted a multi-day celebration of Asheville’s creative spirit. With two days of insider access and unique programming in Asheville alongside G&G editors and staff, attendees toured local galleries, studios, and creative spaces, and experienced the city’s innovative food and drink scene. In addition, a special Made in the South Awards Dinner celebrated the 2022 category and overall winners hosted by G&G editor in chief David DiBenedetto, followed by a Bollywood-themed after-party hosted by chef Meherwan Irani, owner of Chai Pani and Spicewalla.
