Abstract:
Penland, a handicraft instruction center in the mountains of Mitchell County, is considered a rare North Carolina institution. Growing steadily in the seventy-five years since its construction, Penland was originally created to bring the art of weaving back to the hills and increase the income of mountain families. The institute now attracts people from all over the world to learn crafts never before popular in the Mitchell hills.
