One week from today, we'll be hosting author Michael Holcombe for a presentation on his new book, "The Story of Asheville's Water"—the first history of our municipal water, from the 1797 incorporation of the city to post-Helene recovery.

Michael was Asheville's water resources director throughout much of the 1990s and set out to write "The Story of Asheville's Water" after the infamous municipal outage of December 2022. His work uncovers the remarkable degree to which Asheville is a city built on water, from its early beginnings to its promised future as a "climate haven."

This 45 minute presentation will be followed by an audience Q&A and book signing. Full details can be found at https://firestorm.coop/events/3430-the-story-of-ashevilles-water-with-author-michael-l-holcombe.html.
