SCC to host craft festival

Written by 

art sccMountain Shapes and Colors Art and Craft Fair will be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 10, in the Swain Center at Southwestern Community College.

The fair features a variety of arts and crafts, all made by local craftsmen and women from western North Carolina. The program will have the studios open to the public with demonstrations and workshops throughout the day. There will be an opening of the wood and gas kilns during the festival.

SCC Clay Club will be offering two workshops to help raise funds for the club. The first will be a Raku firing workshop. For $10, participants can glaze a pre-thrown pot, and then have SCC Clay Club members fire it for them. The second workshop will feature painting ceramic holiday ornaments for $5. Both workshops are suitable for all ages and work will be ready for pick up by the end of the festival.

    Situated in the southeastern corner of Tennessee, the city of Chattanooga is a rapidly growing, bustling hub of culture and commerce in Southern Appalachia. Like Asheville, both cities went through hard times following the end of their manufacturing eras. Each became stagnant, searching for an identity that eventually evolved into prosperous havens for artists, musicians, chefs, craft brewers, etc.

    We have lots of bug barns in our house: from the old-fashioned Mason jar with holes punched in the lid to a new-fangled, plastic-domed “ladybug playground” with tiny slides and such.

     

    I wager in most families bug barns are relegated to the backyard. Ours, however, take up residence on the kitchen table, with up to four bug barns simultaneously occupied by caterpillars, ants, moths, beetles and even spiders.
