The Museum of North Carolina Handicrafts at historic Shelton House will open on May 1 for the 2012 season.

In addition to Tuesday through Saturday tours conducted by Curator Jackie Stephens, the museum will offer a series of special events and Friday night lectures and demonstrations throughout the May-October season.  

A kick-off celebration will be held on May 4 for members and sponsors. Shelton House is striving for growth in membership to inspire a broader appreciation of the extensive collection of crafts on display at the facility.

We don’t plan to change that model. Support from our readers will help us maintain and strengthen the editorial independence that is crucial to our mission to help make Western North Carolina a better place to call home.
