Cultivating the crafts & makers

of the Southern Highlands

Since 1930, craftspeople residing in the mountain regions of Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, & West Virginia  have come together to create a network and market for mountain crafts. 

Today, we represent over 900 artisans selected by a jury for their high quality craftsmanship & design. 

You will find fine crafts made of clay, fiber, glass, leather, metal, mixed media, natural materials, paper, wood, and jewelry.

Learn how the Southern Highlands continues to inspire and lead the craft revival movement.
