TnCRAFT MIDSTATE

​TENNESSEE CRAFT MIDSTATE

Tennessee Craft is the only statewide organization dedicated to connecting and supporting fine craft artists. Through scholarships, master apprenticeships, and professional development opportunities—as well as signature annual exhibitions and two renowned craft fairs—we foster artistic growth and create pathways for independent artists to thrive. Our work not only benefits our members but also enriches the broader arts community and the public. Every Tennessee Craft member is part of a local chapter, ensuring access to region-specific resources and opportunities. We envision a Tennessee where all craft artists have the access, opportunities, and tools to share and amplify their stories, cultures, and experiences.
The Midstate Chapter welcomes artists from the following counties: Stewart, Montgomery, Robertson, Sumner, Trousdale, Houston, Cheatham, Humphreys, Dickson, Davidson, Wilson, Williamson, and Rutherford.  ​
