ARTISAN EVENTS

Historic Granville recognizes the talent and creativity of local artists and craftsmen and provides an opportunity for visitors to participate in learning new skills from these experienced artists. Workshops are planned throughout the year for artisans to share their talent with others who have an interest in preserving these crafts.

Workshops are limited to small groups so that personal instruction is available for each participant. Lunch is provided and those who register for the classes will be able to take home a uniquely crafted item. All workshops require advance registration. You may sign up online or call 931-653-4151. Don't miss this opportunity to create something beautiful for your home!
