The Nashville Black Wellness Collective is launching its Outside & Active Season this Saturday with a community Hike Day on a trail in Antioch.
The organization aims to build a citywide wellness network centered on fresh air, community, movement and connection. Claude Walker and Dr. Kim Walker are the CEOs and co-founders of the Nashville Black Wellness Collective.
Due to weather, organizers have moved the start time of Saturday’s hike to 9 a.m.
The collective also hosts other recurring events, including 2 Mile Tuesday, where participants meet and walk 2 miles on the second and fourth Tuesday evenings. Those walks begin at Bicentennial Park, near the state museum, and go past the state capitol.

The Jefferson Street Sound Museum is a great little gem in North Nashville. The founder and curator turned his home into a museum to keep the legacy of historic Jefferson street alive. Now, it’s been named a stop on the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. Aaron Cantrell takes us inside.
