2024: Vessels of Abundance
Come by the gallery and say hello…we’ve missed you all!
Our temporary open hours are Wednesday – Saturday 12-4PM. As the city reawakens and we get closer to ‘normal’, those hours and days will expand as we can expand.
Be sure to mark your calendars: only one more week until we finally debut Vessels of Abundance! On Wednesday October 30th at 11AM, this gorgeous new collection of heirloom pottery from eight of our resident artists will publish on the show page. Telephone sales will begin at 12PM sharp on opening day!
See the show page for more details!
American Folk is also listed on Explore Asheville’s “Love Asheville from Afar” page, where you can find a wealth of local businesses that you can support from wherever you are! Just follow that link and you can shop or donate to over 300 local artists, businesses, and organizations. Western North Carolina needs you!
“Local, independent businesses are the heart of the Asheville area – home to growers who are artists and artists whose work grows. Thought leaders and thought provokers, musicians and storytellers, entrepreneurs and educators, foodies and beer lovers, hippies, healers, adventurers, creators and innovators. We craft and brew and paint and carve, handcrafted by real hands. Now, those hands need a helping hand. And a hug.” – Explore Asheville
Our website is full of wonder from a variety of selectively curated contemporary self-taught artists from Texas all the way to Maine: Painters, Whittlers, Carvers & Potters. If you see something you would like to purchase, come on by or reach us by phone 828-281-2134 or email folkart@amerifolk.com
We are open from 12PM – 4PM, Wednesday-Saturday, and are happy to answer your questions and finalize shipping details, no matter how you prefer to get in touch with us.
American Folk represents nearly 40 makers 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 can range from what is referred to as naive all the way to the exquisitely contemporary. We know these folks and only purchase directly from them. Some have garnered world-wide attention, some are exclusive to American Folk, but all have a unique way of expressing their world & their hearts. We are inspired by them every day…and you can be too!
Phone consultation is available regarding individual pieces that you are interested in. We love to talk about the artworks we present in the gallery! We can ship or hold and offer Curbside Pickup if that feels right. Great care is taken in the wrapping & boxing of the artwork to be shipped, giving you confidence that all aspects of your purchase are handled properly.
We offer Custom Picture Framing for any treasured piece that you would like to proudly preserve and display. All framing is performed right here in our workshop.
Gift Certificates are available in any denomination.
