\"\"<\/p>\n

The Southern Highland Craft Guild will host two mini pop-up fairs this summer at the Folk Art Center. On Saturday, May 7, and Saturday, June 4, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., twenty booths will fill the lower level parking lot and Guild members will display and sell their wares in a variety of craft media.<\/p>\n

Brian Brace and Mark Traub, co-chairs of the Guild\u2019s Fair Committee, had to get resourceful when the pandemic started. \u201cThere is an amazing amount of work that goes into our four-day shows at Harrah\u2019s Cherokee Center in Asheville in July and October,\u201d says Brace. \u201cWith the indoor shows unable to be held during COVID-19, the Guild came up with the idea of bringing the shows to the public at an outstanding outdoor location.\u201d<\/p>\n

Because each mini pop-up fair features 20 different artists, craft lovers are encouraged to attend both because they\u2019ll provide very unique experiences. Media represented at each show include stained glass; wheel-thrown and hand-built ceramics; woodcarving; screen-printed and sewn textiles; basketry and metalsmithing. \u201cMake a point to come on out and support these hard-working, top-notch artists,\u201d Brace says.<\/p>\n

The Folk Art Center is located at Milepost 382 on the Blue Ridge Parkway in east Asheville. For more information, visit CraftGuild.org<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
