The LEAF Foundation is committed to transforming lives, connecting cultures and generating unity through music, the arts, festivals and education programs. In addition to impacting Asheville families and youth through its annual festivals, LEAF offers year-round programs that allow young people to explore the arts and hone their skills. The LEAF Foundation also collaborates with communities around the world to teach youth about the arts.
