Description
For 41 years Tennessee Association of Craft Artists has been connecting crafts and people through education, marketing and networking. It works to encourage professionalism among craft artists and raise the standard of excellence in craftsmanship and design. The only statewide craft organiztion in Tennessee, TACA was a 1994 recipient of the Governor's Award in the Arts.
TACA creates craft markets and opportunities to increase public understanding and appreciation of crafts. The most familiar are the long-standing craft fairs in Nashville's Centennial Park the first weekend in May and the last weekend in September, both of which are free to the public. In addition, TACA sponsors The Best of Tennessee Craft, a statewide competition every other year for craft artists living in Tennessee.
