Contemporary southern folk art, NC wood-fired pottery, and custom picture framing
Featured Artist
Jack Klippel
As most of you know, it is uncommon for us to bring a new artist into our fold; when we do, its because someone has captured something special that we would like to share with you. Jack Klippel creates wonderful little wooden structures. He reproduces actual historic churches here in the region. His choices combine his interest in history, architectural nuances and our regions cultures. Take a look and be charmed! : http://www.amerifolk.com/artists/jack-klippel/
We are excited to invite you in-with a face covering- and a few at a time! Come on in and enjoy the offerings of our 35 different artists and potters and carvers. We are here from 11 am till 5 pm every day-7 days a week! But, do please bring your face coverings.
We have missed you, and look forward to seeing you and finding our way in this new normal. What many of us in the arts have realized over and over: it is our creative spirit that will allow us to navigate this new reality. Together we accept this challenge, and will steer best we can.
The gallery is OPEN EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK ; 11 – 5. The website is current and up to date, if you see something you would like to purchase call 828-281-2134, we are here to answer your questions and finalize sales over the phone…we ship as well, just ask!
Face Coverings are the new normal -everyone who enters needs to be sporting one…Thank-you! This has helped us feel comfortable about unlocking and inviting you in!
FOR CUSTOM PICTURE FRAMING: We encourage you to call for an appointment. The hours of 10 – 11 am or 5 – 6 pm are set aside for framing appointments – we can create together with less contact with others, but are available many other times & will work with your schedule, of course. Just give a call, we will figure it out together: 828-281-2134
WEBSITE & CURBSIDE: As always this website is current; we offer phone consultation about individual pieces that you are interested in. We can ship or hold and offer CURBSIDE PICKUPS if that feels right, and it has been fun….
Since March 17th when the doors were locked, it has been a time of soul searching and discovery for the gallery, and I am sure for each of you. Throughout this time, we have had the luxury of good conversations with our artists and even some of you. We remain steadfast in our mission to represent a highly curated selection of artists, artists who have a very personal way to express beauty, heart and life itself.
WE ARE HERE FOR YOU! We are available via Phone: 828-281-2134 or via Email: folkart@amerifolk.com
Within the pages of our website, you will see a variety of selectively curated contemporary self-taught artists. Painters, Whittlers, Carvers & Potters, American Folk presents makers from South Louisiana all the way to Maine with one goal in mind: To expose the world to the creative powers and originality of our artists. Their visions bring life, color, joy and complexity to our gallery and to your home. Self-taught art ranges from what is referred to as primitive all the way to exquisitely contemporary. All of our artists are living and working today, some have garnered world wide attention, some are exclusive to American Folk….all have a unique way of expressing their world & their hearts. We are inspired by them every day….
