Woolworth Walk, Asheville

A friend and I walked into this space without any expectations or ideas, and spent nearly two hours exploring the diverse array of incredible talent available in this space. Walking through these displays of talent and creative expression was time well spent! It was beautiful, entertaining, educational, and even inspirational. If you enjoy art and want to see a sampling of works by local/regional creators, if you simply appreciate seeing used of various forms and mediums, or if you are looking for a piece to transform a space, this place is brimming with treasures.

The five stars are for the soda counter inside. The root beer floats are really good and they have Mexican coke! As for the rest, this is an art gallery where you purchase artwork. Not a shopping center like we thought. Some good artwork though, just out of my price range.

Gifts and art you can’t find at your local Target. We were in town for just a few hours and had dinner and walked to explore when we stumbled upon this very cool concept. I have some fond memories of Woolworth’s as a kid so it was a bit nostalgic. Check out my pics!

Great place to buy Arts and crafts. Dime store Diner/Soda fountain also from the Woolworth days. 2 floors packed with Art Cubicles everything from Ceramics photography paintings and handmade jewelry.

Lots of fantastic local art here. Places like this can be very hit or miss, but Woolworth Walk was very well curated and organized. I don't think there was a single booth that we weren't interested in looking through, and we left with a couple of really nice pieces. Keeping the soda fountain functioning is a great touch - we arrived too late to sample anything, but their menu options looked very tasty.
