Appalachian Voices Tickets

Appalachian Voices is a committed nonprofit based in Boone, North Carolina, with offices in Charlottesville, VA; Norton, VA; and Knoxville, TN. Founded in 1997 by Harvard Ayers, the organization blends advocacy, education, and community programming to fight mountaintop removal, reduce coal-plant pollution, and promote renewable energy and energy efficiency across Appalachia. Its core communications arm, The Appalachian Voice, has been a leading voice for the region since 1996 and pivoted to online-only publication in 2020, continuing to connect audiences to policy updates, field reports, and success stories. While this page centers on Appalachian Voices as a performer, the group operates as a cause-driven collective that engages communities through campaigns, events, and outreach aimed at securing a sustainable future for the mountains.

Key milestones include a 2023 Buildings Upgrade Prize grant of the best available price from the Department of Energy to support electrification and resilience in coalfield communities. Although there are no 2025 touring dates, Appalachian Voices remains active with advocacy campaigns and events, such as the 2025 Resilient Appalachia Giveaway. To stay connected, follow their official channels and The Appalachian Voice publication for updates. Reach out for collaborations, speaking engagements, and community events that align with clean-energy and environmental justice goals.
