Nina Simone Plaza
54 South Trade Street
Tryon, NC

A heritage tourism celebration recognizing the unique contributions to the American songbook and to the national struggle for equal rights by local Western North Carolina (WNC) daughter Nina Simone. The event will highlight WNC Blue Ridge culture and traditions among the very broadest range of its citizens, and how that culture and those traditions culminated in the “making” of the internationally acclaimed artist Nina Simone.
