About this Event
Farmers and craftspeople made the American Revolution possible and shaped the growth of American democracy. Tennessee growers and crafters have always been—and continue to be—part of this process.
Make plans to join local practitioners and scholars on February 28th at 2pm at the East Tennessee History Center in Knoxville for a panel discussion exploring 250 years of the civic, social, and economic roles of craftspeople and growers in the creation and evolution of our nation.
Panelists will also discuss how these groups stand to shape the next chapter of American democracy. What and how will Tennesseans be crafting and growing in the future?
