Mission

The Tennessee Association of Craft Artists (TACA) is a nonprofit organization with the mission to encourage, develop, and promote crafts and crafts people in Tennessee. We have been working to preserve the tradition and heritage of Tennessee craft art since 1965. With the help of our talented members, supportive donors, committed sponsors, and selfless volunteers we continually work to educate the public and our artists about the art of craft.

TACA members receive benefits and resources from our office, seven chapters throughout the state, and partner organizations. With membership, you help TACA increase public understanding and appreciation for fine craft, join a community of mutual support, nurture excellence, encourage creativity, promote professional development among craft artists and those who collect the work, sustain markets for fine craft art, and celebrate the values and work of craft artisans in Tennessee and beyond!
