Asheville Through the Maker's Lens
October 29 - November 4, 2023
Welcome to the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, home to iconic mountains and a rich history in American art and craft. Over the years, the region has not only survived, but THRIVED due to its traditional and contemporary craft schools, a lively foodie and micro-brewery scene in Asheville, and the presence of the Southern Highland Guilds’ Folk Art Center along the Blue Ridge Parkway. During our time together, we’ll do a lot of exploring. We’ll also introduce you to the Blue Ridge Mountain fibershed (a term used to describe all the contributors and components in fiber endeavors of a certain geographic area). We’ll visit sheep farms, a historic fiber mill, learn about the Blue Ridge Blanket Project and so much more. For your pleasure, we’ve settled everyone into the comfortable elegance of a grande inn and carriage house in the historic Montford District of Asheville. We can and will indulge in the inn’s southern hospitality, starting with a generous front porch to gather for knitting, cozy seating indoors, scratch-made two-course breakfasts, and an evening social hour featuring an assortment of local libations and charcuterie. Welcome to Asheville!
