About the Center for Craft Creativity and Design

The Center for Craft, Creativity and Design (Craft Center) opened in April 2001, in a new facility with 2,460 square feet of galleries, offices and a meeting room adjacent to the Conference Center. The exhibitions in the galleries feature the work of professional artists and the faculty and students of the three UNC mountain campuses: UNC Asheville, Appalachian State University, and Western Carolina University. Other exhibits and talks provide an educational focus to the craft heritage and design of Western North Carolina.
