The Southern Highland Craft Guild operates this gallery, which showcases the works of member artists from nine Appalachian states. More than 300 artists are part of the group and their work is showcased in five different co-op galleries run by the Guild, including the Parkway Craft Center.
The works are rotated on a regular basis and include woodcarvings, photographs, quilts, pottery, jewelry, and glass. The bookstore carries trail maps as well as nature and history books highlighting the area.
