Meet these talented local makers:
“I’ve always been a hands on kind of person. I’ve never been one to sit behind a desk. Part of me has to be interacting physically with what I’m doing and I always figured why not try this? Because if a person’s doing it, well I’m a person, maybe I can do it.”
– Capers Cauthen, craftsman & owner of Landrum Tables
“I like to create things that make people laugh or smile. I don’t make classic art that would be in a traditional museum. My most popular print is of Waffle House; everyone has a Waffle House story. Two strangers can look at it and feel the same nostalgia. That’s really important.”
– Anna Chen, watercolor collage artist & teacher
“I feel like I’ve always been a creative. I’ve always been inspired through fashion. Growing up, my grandparents taught me how to embroider and sew on buttons.”
– Nicholas Overstreet, designer & owner of Boysterous Couture
“I play guitar and harmonica, but my first instrument was a trumpet, so when I started recording, I would grab whatever instrument was around. It’s similar to how I paint; building up layers to present more of a story.”
– Nathan Edwin McClements, artist, singer-songwriter, & maker
