Brown County Craft Gallery

This lovely, cooperative gallery has many beautiful and unique pieces from 30 plus local and surrounding area Brown County artists. The gallery is located on the South end of Nashville next door to Brown County Mercantile. The gallery has been highlighting professionally handcrafted works of art since 1978. Some of the artisans have 40 plus years of experience in their arts and these quality items reflect that experience.The layout and walkway makes it easy to browse even with several others visiting. The staff was informative, friendly and proud of their accomplishments. I love the creative gourds, the gorgeous ceramics, the colorful metal works and the distinctive jewelry. The wide variety of homemade soaps, useful baskets, impressive weaving, amazing hand cut puzzles and detailed wood working were intriguing. To have this kind of talent! Don't pass up the breathtaking photography, original watercolors (my favorite), prints and the stunning gift cards of Brown County scenes which were on sale. So many unique and affordable gift ideas from birthday to Christmas or a special gift for yourself. Their open daily, year round (except major holidays) so you can pop in whenever you're looking for an exceptional handcrafted item.

If you are a fan of items crafted by individual artists, then I recommend stopping by this small shop on Washington Street on the south end of Nashville. There are items from jewelry, to puzzles, to ceramics and sculptures. The staff are friendly without being pushy. I was surprised at how many different artists were represented in the shop. Most of the items are smaller (indoor) pieces that could easily fit on a table or desk. Review #851 (Rev)
