The Gathering of Artisans Conference

The Gathering of Artisans was a fabulous conference in Asheville, North Carolina September 14-17, 2017 . I had registered for the conference in January, 2017...nobody could have predicted Hurricane Irma would have hit Florida and moved up through Georgia. We were without power for four days...I left it all behind & Carol Lindquist and I drove to Asheville on Thursday for a powerful long week-end!
