30th Annual "Hard Candy Christmas " Art & Craft Show

WCU Liston B. Ramsey Regional Activity Center 92 Catamount Rd, Cullowhee, North Carolina 28723
The Mountain Artisans Art & Craft Shows started in Macon County in 1987. Only 8 artisans exhibited at the first Christmas show in Franklin, NC.
We never imagined that, down the road, we were headed to the wonderful Ramsey Center on the Western Carolina University campus in Cullowhee, North Carolina!
It is a dream come true. As the years have flown by, more and more artisans wanted a good place to sell their hand work and joined us. So many of our small businesses have been sent overseas, but there are no imports here. The southern craftsman is alive and well in this area. Many of the heritage crafts are handed down from the older generation.
Look for heritage crafts such as quilting, clay art, folk dolls, corn shuck flowers, goat milk soap and primitive furniture that was inspired from past generations.
