ASHEVILLE, N.C. (828newsNOW) — Members of the Asheville Urban Trail Committee and the Public Art & Culture Commission recently visited the Waynesville studio of metal artist Rachel David, whose work was selected for a new installation on the city’s Urban Trail.
David, chosen through a competitive call for artists in 2024, is creating a public artwork that will be installed in front of the historic S&W Building in downtown Asheville.
