They will also have an opportunity to meet Chimney Rock State Park rangers, who will share about the current status and future goals for the state park. Food- Drinks- Music- Art- raffle and Stories Help support one of North Carolina's most iconic parks. Tropical Storm Helene ravaged WNC, literally washing away whole communities, including the town of Chimney Rock. The State Park was so damaged that it has taken eight months to reopen; however, they still need your support. In an effort to help restore this beautiful and historic site, PAPA is hosting a fundraiser to directly support Chimney Rock State Park restoration efforts. We are joining forces with local artists – many of whom were affected by Helene themselves – to host an art show, with the proceeds benefiting Chimney Rock. Paintings depicting Chimney Rock, pre-Helene, will be available for sale through July 31 on the PAPA website, as well as at Saluda Studios in Saluda, North Carolina. Join us to celebrate and support this beautiful WNC landmark and the momentous occasion of its reopening to the public!
