Southern Highland Handicraft Guild

The Southern Highland Handicraft Guild met for its annual membership meeting in Knoxville, Tennessee on March 12, 1942. Meeting minutes generally contain committee reports, financial statements, new members, announcements of regional events, and discussion about special issues facing the organization. At this particular meeting treasurer George Bent reported for the Allanstand and Big Meadows shops, announcing the retirement of Allanstand shop managerAgnes Loeffler and reporting that final numbers from the new shop at Big Meadows showed a loss of $367.26. Frances L. Goodrich requested that members contribute old weaving drafts for the Guild museum collection. Committees were given the jobs of developing an insignia and a policy for using it. There was discussion about payment to Berea College for the office space used by Guild officers. The Southern Highland Handicraft Guild was founded in 1930 as the Southern Mountain Handicraft Guild. The name was changed to the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild in 1933 and again in the 1990s to the Southern Highland Craft Guild.
