About YMI Cultural Center
Safe Shelter is honored to partner with the YMI Cultural Center as the host and a sponsor of our event. As one of the oldest Black cultural centers in the United States, the YMI has been a cornerstone of Asheville’s Black community since 1892, dedicated to preserving and promoting African American arts, culture, and heritage. With a mission rooted in justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion, the YMI continues to uplift and empower through dynamic programs and community engagement. Their historic space, originally funded by George Vanderbilt to support Black workers at the Biltmore Estate, now serves as a vital hub for education, business, and cultural celebration. We are proud to host our event in this landmark institution, reflecting our shared commitment to community, equity, and meaningful impact.
