"Post-Helene: Remembering, Rebuilding, Reimagining" is a faculty-led, campus-wide, community-engaged symposium, funded by the NEH Professorship under the direction of Dr. William Bares (humanities/arts), with assistance from Dr. Megan Underhill (social sciences) and Dr. David Gillette (natural sciences). Spread across UNC Asheville's diverse academic environment and beyond, the three-day symposium offers a place for collective reflection on Helene's legacy.

Proprietor and Sinfonietta Helene composer Jay Sanders opens the beloved neighborhood venue Little Jumbo to symposium particiants and organizers to celebrate the conclusion of the Blue Ridge Orchestra concerts and a week's worth of symposium events.
