Toys and Folk Art Collection

Our toys and folk art collection contains pieces by some notable figures in our region's history. We have an extensive collection of dolls handcrafted by Gladys Lett, known widely as the Dollmaker of Asheville, as well as a collection of pieces by artists from the renowned John C. Campbell Folk School (JCCFS) in Brasstown, NC.
