Information

Name:

Appalachian Arts and Crafts Center

Description:

The Community Craft Center was founded in 1970 "to enrich the souls and pocketbooks of low-income people in Anderson County." The original members assisted each other in teaching, producing, and selling hand crafts. Today, local people still gather to share creative ideas and talents, keeping the traditional crafts alive and also pursuing more contemporary work including Pottery, Weaving, Quilts, Baskets, Wood Carving, Appalachian Folk Art, Dolls, and Toys. The Center has grown to become a highly recognized educational facility. The 200 plus members still include the two founders and other original members. As they continue to grow, new members are always welcome. Hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
