In addition to the beautiful music, Dollywood’s National Southern Gospel & Harvest Celebration brings visiting crafters and a stunning display of their unique artistry.
Talented craftspeople fill the park with a variety of handmade items, including home décor, jewelry, musical instruments, tools, toys and more. At many booths, visiting crafters offer up-close demonstrations of their handiwork while sharing interesting details of their trade, bringing to life the timeless arts and crafts of yesteryear.
Plus, Dollywood’s own master craftsmen perform demonstrations during the festival, too, including blacksmithing, glassblowing, wagon making, woodcarving and candy making.
