Artist's Village, founded and operated by Linda Poland, provides a unique retail space in Caryville, Tennessee, where local and regional artists can showcase and sell their art and fine crafts. Dissatisfied with the limited avenues available to artists in rural Appalachia, Linda envisioned a space akin to an antique mall specifically catered to artisans, giving birth to Artist's Village in March 2012.
Nestled in a historic building in Caryville, a charming former coal-mining town serving as the gateway to Norris Lake, Artist's Village offers a diverse range of artwork from over 21 artists and craftsmen. From oil and watercolor paintings to handcrafted furniture, jewelry, and even creations made from discarded items, the village is a vibrant hub of creativity and community.
Going beyond a mere retail space, Artist's Village also hosts workshops and classes, such as seascape workshops conducted by renowned artists like Joyce Ortner. From teaching painting techniques to organizing art exploration classes for children, the village fosters a dynamic environment where art enthusiasts of all ages can come together to appreciate and create art.
