"HandMade in America was founded in 1993 with a belief that economic revitalization wasn’t necessarily tied to luring "modern" industry to the region but in making known the hidden heritage and craftspeople that are so vitally a part of western North Carolina. Please take a look at our website, specifically the Handcrafted Design Source and Craft Registry. How might we be listed as a resource?"
