Mission
Cville Niche is a blog-a-zine targeted at University students and young adults to inform them not only of events, restaurants, businesses, and retailers available in the larger Charlottesville community, but also the opportunities they have to participate together with the Charlottesville community, such as charitable local community events and a variety of restaurants and cultural activities.
The primary goal of this magazine is not only to connect the UVa students with Charlottesville community and its people but also to promote and help local cooperative trade. Secondly, it will also provide and expose students to a wider selection of different and enjoyable opportunities both on and off grounds to fit a range of budgets and interests. Lastly, Cville Niche aims to be a resource and forum for reader suggestions, questions and reviews.

I drive, sometimes with music, sometimes in silence... usually up garth road. There's a little creek way out there I love to stop and sit by. It's my secret spot - I can reveal no more!
