Brown County Craft Gallery file photo
For about 45 years now, the Brown County Craft Gallery has been a staple in downtown Nashville, a place area artists and craftsmen can sell their creations directly to the public.
Founded in 1978, the non-profit gallery has 12 members and 22 artists who consign their work.
One recent February morning, member Sidney Bolam, a stone carver, and her pet dog Rosie, worked the counter and greeted visitors who came in looking for locally created treasures and travel directions.
She describes the gallery as a“ low ego” establishment focusing on heritage crafts which has a big heart
