Get into the holiday spirit with the annual Fireside Sale at the John C. Campbell Folk School, returning this year on Saturday, December 14, 2024. This beloved event offers a cozy, festive atmosphere with live holiday music, a warm crackling fire, and an array of fine crafts made by local and regional artisans.

Visitors can shop for unique, handmade treasures in the beautifully decorated Keith House and meet the talented craftspeople showcasing their work in both the Dining Hall and Davidson Hall (adjacent to the Craft Shop). A wide selection of handcrafted items will be available, including jewelry, weaving, forged iron, photography, quilts, and turned wood. This is a perfect opportunity to find one-of-a-kind holiday gifts that reflect the spirit of Appalachian craftsmanship.

In addition to the Fireside Sale, the Folk School’s Craft Shop will be offering an exclusive 15% discount on all items from November 30 to December 22, 2024. Discover handmade gifts from a variety of media, such as fiber arts, woodwork, pottery, forged metal, and more—all crafted by local and regional artists.
