Smoky Mountain homes bring you back to the nation’s largest group of independent artisans.  Almost one hundred individual; galleries, studios, and shops occupy the loop along Rte 321, Buckhorn Road and Glades Road.  When you consider additional stores outside of this hub of artists, that’s an awesome selection.  Shoppers who appreciate unique, quality-made items love to buy creations from these places.  In an age, when a majority of what we purchase is made cheaply, on the opposite side of the world.  Our Arts and Crafts Community is special.  The Great Smoky Arts & Crafts Community was founded in 1937.  Like other locations in these Southern Mountains, wise individuals saw value in preserving the crafts of a bygone era.  The products of these artisans still have value in our modern society.  When a storm or other event knocks out power, it is nice to have beautiful candles for light and a nice quilt to keep us warm. 

Another aspect of this community is that your money gets spent here, where it feeds local people, not foreigners living one-half-a-world away.  With the current state of our economy, it is crucial to spend money where it helps our local population.  In addition, these artisans produce products that are often unique, one-of-a-kind items.  Anyone who appreciates quality would choose an object fabricated with care and attention, over mass produced assembly-line items.  Go online and you can pull up links that will give you more details on all these artistic endeavors.

If being close to all these wonderful arts and crafts, calls to you, then consider living here, or buy a vacation home in the area.  Either option provides you with close contact to the artists.  You also, could take classes to learn these skills.  Centers like Arrowmont in Gatlinburg, allow for study with artists and artisans. They share their skills with future craftspeople.  Begin your property quest on our website and define your personal search options.  When it’s time to view the finalists in your search, schedule time with our professionals and seal the deal.
