2024: Vessels of Abundance
Good news, folks!
The gallery will re-open on Wednesday October 23rd on a revised schedule. Our temporary open hours will be Wednesday – Saturday 12-4PM. As we make the long trek back toward normalcy, those hours and days will expand as we can expand.
That being said, our website is always open for your viewing pleasure and you can peruse every piece in the gallery right here. If you feel so inclined to adopt an artwork from us, email is the best way to reach out right now. Throughout this next week, I will be in and out of the gallery on a sporadic schedule and can be available to make appointments for local pickup.
American Folk will also be 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.
“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
Continue to look out for one another. The road is long and seems bleak at times, but there’s nothing we can’t do if we stick together.
Vessels of Abundance has been re-scheduled. The show will now debut on Wednesday October 30th at 11 AM. Check the show page for more info!
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.
