Southern Mountain Handicraft Guild

These unofficial notes document the second organizational meeting for the Southern Mountain Handicraft Guild which was held at the Spinning Wheel shop in Asheville, N.C. on December 28, 1929. There were 13 women representing 8 "Producing Centers." An organizational committee of Olive D. Campbell, Helen H. Dingman, and Clementine Douglas, was assigned the job of developing a constitution and soliciting other members. The Southern Mountain Handicraft Guild was officially founded at its first meeting in March 1930 where the constitution and by-laws were accepted and officers elected. The organization’s name was changed to the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild in 1933 and again in the 1990s to the Southern Highland Craft Guild.
