Since 2014, the Market Theatre has proudly hosted the annual 24 Hour Musical, raising over $50,000 for charity!
Each year, this event features a Broadway-style performance created in just 24 hours to benefit a local charity. The twist? Performers and volunteers only find out the show title the night before!
Join us on August 9, 2025, at 7 p.m. at the Henderson Auditorium at Anderson University for this exciting event. Admission is FREE, but donations are welcome that evening. You can also reserve seats by making an advance donation ($25) through markettheatre.org/tickets.
All donations will go directly to the 24 Hour Musical Forward Fund, allowing the nonprofit to continue raising money for incredible community charities for another 10 years, $50,000, and beyond!
The YWCA Racial Justice Workshop is open to our entire YWCA Asheville community – including our staff, volunteers, board, donors, program participants, Fitness Center and community members. This 90-minute workshop will take place on the second Tuesday of each month at 11:30 am and will be facilitated by Gerry Leonard, Racial Justice & Outreach Specialist and Lexus Walker, Tzedek Social Justice Fellow.
Are you looking for an excuse to knit or crochet for a good cause? Help make baby hats and blankets and adult hats, scarves, and slippers to support at-risk newborns and homeless adults. Your handmade knitwear will keep our neighbors warm. Volunteers with basic skills in knitting or crocheting are welcome. Please bring your own needles or crochet hooks and a pattern.

The Last Train Robber
Did You Know America’s Last Train Robber Lived Out His Years in Spartanburg, SC?
He never meant to rob a moving train—or get caught in a shootout just blocks from the White House. But it really happened.
Climb aboard with author Wilson Casey to hear the firsthand account of the last moving train robbery in American history. In Bedlam on the W. Virginia Rails, Casey shares the incredible true story of Luman “Lu” Ramsdell, as told by the train robber himself. Dubbed “The B&O Zoot Suit Bandits” by the national press, Lu and his gang became infamous for their violent 1949 heist.
Lunch and Learn is sponsored by the Chapman Cultural Center
There are a limited number of seats, be sure to register in advance (even members!)
Admission: $5 for non-members / Free for SCHA members.
Don’t forget to bring your lunch!
