Proud to partner with Holston Mountain Artisans on a short documentary film project to tell the story of this historic, enduring network of talented makers. Abingdon has a vibrant arts scene.

It's been about a 2-year journey to film the restoration of a beloved mural in a small Appalachian coal town. This month the documentary will premier in Richlands, Virginia. Such a rewarding experience.

Far southwest Virginia has a surprising number of talented, humble artists. Support them. Purchase their work. Keep art alive in #SWVA.

Jim Green is a perfect example of the artists who call #swva home. I really enjoyed spending a day with Jim to film this.

Artists seem be drawn to the mountains of southwestern Virginia. Nancy Greever Brooks is a good example of the modest creatives who live here.

Thanks to Nancy for letting me tell her story.

Selfless service in the heart of Appalachia. There are still plenty of good people in this world. #SWVA #Appalachia #Virginia
