Cashiers Designer Showhouse
BENEFACTOR PACKAGES
BECAUSE OF YOU, OUR MISSION THRIVES
Our benefactors make our mission possible, allowing us to continue documenting and sharing the stories and traditions that make this community special.
The Mission of the Cashiers Historical Society is to preserve the heritage of Cashiers Valley, through Education, Stewardship and Advocacy. In 2025, we are celebrating the 28th anniversary of the Cashiers Designer Showhouse, our signature fundraising event. This years Showhouse is stunning modern rustic home, beautifully complemented by its breathtaking surroundings.
The Impact of Your Gift
Over the last two decades, the Cashiers Designer Showhouse has become a beloved tradition that brings thousands of people to Cashiers during the last week of August. Funds raised support the Cashiers Historical Society’s mission to preserve the history and culture of the Cashiers Valley through education, stewardship, and advocacy.
Our benefactors help make our mission possible by allowing us to continue documenting and sharing the stories and traditions that make this community special. In 2024, we welcomed thousands of visitors to our campus, home to some of the oldest structures in Jackson County, North Carolina. Our educational programs reached thousands more, including every third through sixth grader in our local schools. Cashiers Historical Society programs are designed to strengthen our community by reminding people that we’re united in our shared history of Cashiers.
