Riverarts District Artists Association
The RiverArts District Artists Association is the association of artists who work in the Asheville's old warehouse district, now know as the River District or the RiverArts District. The RDA hosts two studio strolls each year; one during the second weekend in June and the other during the second weekend in November. This is a great time to see the art being created in the River District because many studios are typically only open by appointment or chance.
