Several new people will be joining our popular returning artisans, who are juried and known for their high quality items at reasonable prices. You do not need to wait until November 2008 to contact any of our artisans for a unique hand-crafted item for yourself or for holiday, birthday, anniversary, new baby and wedding gifts. For information and photos of what each artisan sells all year long, click on Artisans (above).
In 2004 this group of 24 - 28 artisans from Nevada City, Grass Valley and Penn Valley joined together to become BANNER MOUNTAIN ARTISANS. During our annual November Sale, shoppers can experience the joy of actually talking with the person who crafted each item. Many of the artisans are well known in this area and have won awards for their endeavors. How wonderful it is to appreciate and possibly purchase the handwork and artistry from local residents! Previous customers have commented on the high quality and wide variety of items for sale.
During the year, the members of Banner Mountain Artisans sell their hand-made items from their homes or in local stores and galleries.
