Tin Roof Studio is your arty-smarty fun-functional junction! Between high art and mass produced crafts lies the rich domain of handcrafted art, where skilled artisans keep old traditions alive with a uniquely individual and modern twist. Tin Roof Studio offers works by over 130 such artists from around the country in its custom-built gallery two miles from downtown Highlands, NC.

“We personally select artists whose work is a joy to look at and a delight to use,” says owner Jan Wilson.

The focus on fine craftsmanship in functional objects might mean something as simple as wearing a hand-crafted necklace, placing flowers in a hand-blown vase or drinking coffee from a hand-thrown mug. With prices ranging from $5 to $3,000 and items of interest to children as well as adults, Tin Roof Studio is committed to helping everyone, in one artist’s words, “live life artfully.”
