The Southern Appalachian Artist Guild is an organization of artisans and craftsmen from several states, Georgia, Tennessee and North Carolina, brought together “to promote the business and professional development of its member artists.”    We are part of the historic Art Center in Blue Ridge, GA.  We hold several members only shows each year (at least one is a traveling exhibition) and sponsor the National Juried Show for members and non-members.

SAAG has monthly educational meetings,  Show and Tell sessions, social events, access to master's level classes, and a credentialing program.  Members also enjoy the camaraderie of meeting with fellow artists. Chartered in 2007 with only 25, we have now grown to almost 175 members. 

Please visit www.SouthernAppalachianArtists.org for more information or see our FORMS section for printable guild forms.
