Mountain Artisans Shows 'Where all the good artist are' ! 

      The Mountain Artisans shows are famous for featuring just the biggest selection of authentic handcrafted art and craft in this area.

     Mountain Artisans promotes two events each year.  The July  "Summertime " show is held the week end closest to the Fourth of July.  The "Hard Candy Christmas ", a Mountain Christmas Tradition, is always the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving. 

 Both events are held inside in the Western Carolina  University Ramsey Center in  scenic Cullowhee, North Carolina.

It is centrally located only 45 miles southwest of Asheville;  just minutes from The Great Smoky Mountains.

 In July, many exhibitors work outside the building demonstrating heritage crafts such as blacksmithing.  A  wood wright hews out buckets by hand and a bowl wright hews dough bowls using the old time adz. 

If you ever wanted to play the Pluck Stick, here is your opportunity. 

The best chainsaw sculpture around will be skillfully shaping amazing bears and the vanishing art of chair caning will be there also.

Each exhibitor at these shows are carefully screened to be the best in their field.  The customer can purchase a quilt or rustic furniture and meet the artist who made it!

There is a wide selection of heritage and contemporary crafts including: Glass, Woodworking , Doll craft, Leather, Natural Materials,  Fine Art and Folk Art, Jewelry, Gourd Art, Birdhouses, and Designer Fabric  purses..  Many of the hard to find crafts like Pine needle baskets and bark buckets . We have just the best of pottery and clay art.

The Lucas family will be playing the old songs on the psalteries they make and showing you how easy it is to learn ! 

You will understand why everyone who attends our shows just says : "Wow" when they attend and plan to come back next year!
