Support the Southern Highland Craft Guild and the Blue Ridge Parkway’s Folk Art Center

Each year, over 200,000 visitors come to the Folk Art Center on the Blue Ridge Parkway to enjoy our exhibitions, special events, daily demonstrations, and seasonal entertainment— all offered at no cost to the public. Thanks to the generous support of our donors, we can continue providing these valuable experiences and expand our programs to educate both adults and children about the rich craft heritage and talented artisans of the Southern Appalachians.

Ways You Can Make a Difference

With your donation, we can further enhance and grow our educational programs and exhibits. You can direct your gift to specific areas that are close to your heart, such as:

• The Robert W. Gray Library Collection
• The Archives Collection
• The Permanent Collection
• The Education Fund
• The Endowment Fund

These contributions allow us to grow our collections, expand programming, and plan for a sustainable future.

Unrestricted Gifts

Another impactful way to give is through unrestricted donations, which help support the Guild’s daily operations and enable us to take on projects outside of our regular budget. Your unrestricted gift could fund things like:

• Children’s Educational Tours & Workshops
• Upgrading Security, Infrastructure, and Technology

Every donation, large or small, helps us continue preserving and celebrating the craft traditions of the Southern Appalachians for generations to come.
