The Colonial Homestead Artisans Guild is committed to preserving our heritage and the artisanal practices from our past. Many of the handcrafts from our past are the crafts still utilized by many of today’s talented artists found throughout Ohio. Yet, many crafts such as gun building, blacksmithing, leather making, timber framing, horning, wood carving, and others are at risk of being forgotten.
The Artisans Guild was formed to preserve these crafts by teaching and mentoring students in these age-old techniques and skills while also incorporating more contemporary practices.
