Heartfelt thanks from director Mia Hall:

“200 inspiring works have been contributed to this year’s Penland Benefit Auction, our biggest fundraiser of the year. Each invited artist is one of Penland’s own, our instructors, core fellows, and residents. Our community.

These artists have taken raw materials and transformed them through their knowledge and skills. Their work both honors craft tradition and explores its future.

We are deeply honored by their support of Penland, craft, and our shared mission of Making Lives Meaningful Through Making.”
