Qualla Arts and Crafts Mutual, Inc.

Qualla Arts & Crafts Mutual of Cherokee, North Carolina, had a popular booth at the Craftsman's Fairs of the Southern Highlands. In this photograph from the 1953 fair in Asheville, North Carolina, four women are admiring a double-weave basket, as Goingback Chiltoskey looks on. Chiltoskey was a Cherokee woodcarver who demonstrated in the booth. This photograph was taken by Edward L. Dupuy.
