The High Country: The Nation's

Treasure Trove of Traditional Arts and Fine Crafts

There is no better souvenir than a one-of-a-kind hand-made craft or collectible, and there's no shortage of  local and international art in the Boone Area. Crafts range from home-made toys and dolls to Native American tribal art and jewelry.  And then there's the world-class fine art, jewelry, and furnishings found at so many galleries where the artists are local—but nationally-known. Come see for yourself. There are treasures aplenty to be found in the art galleries and shops of the North Carolina High Country.
