The Mountaintop Art & Craft Show in Highlands, North Carolina, returns August 29 and 30, bringing more than 80 regional artisans to Kelsey-Hutchinson Founders Park.
What began in 2006 as the Village Square Art & Craft Show has grown into an enduring summer tradition on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.
Its value is not simply that many of the goods are handmade. It is the range and the encounter: fine art, pottery, turned wood, textiles, jewelry and live demonstrations alongside smoked meats, olives, specialty foods and discoveries that do not fit neatly into a category.
You can watch something take shape, speak with the person behind it, taste something unexpected and leave with more than another item from an online cart.
The show does something an algorithm cannot. It puts maker, material, place and visitor in the same conversation. That is commerce, but it is also culture at a human scale.
Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Meadows Mountain Realty is proud to continue our sponsorship of an event that gives regional talent a place to be seen and contributes so much to summers in Highlands.

Saturday, August 29 | 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Calvin Wright, founder of @cwdesignworks, takes us inside the build at 108 Shortoff Shadow Trail in Old Edwards Club at Highlands Cove, where the design draws inspiration from early American homes of the Hudson River Valley and reinterprets that character for mountain living.
Regional timber, Elberton granite, Alabama marble, spruce shiplap, a scratch-built Rumford fireplace, and carefully considered interior finishes are all part of the vision for this four-bedroom, four-and-a-half-bath home.
From the vaulted dining space and keeping room to the private primary suite and mountain-view bath, this home offers a behind-the-scenes look at the craftsmanship and design decisions shaping a new luxury home in Highlands, NC.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What makes Highlands and Cashiers popular choices for second-home buyers?
Highlands and Cashiers offer a rare combination of mountain scenery, cooler summers, outdoor recreation, dining, and a strong sense of community. Many second-home buyers are drawn to the area because it provides a peaceful retreat while still offering year-round amenities and activities.
How do I choose between Highlands, Cashiers, Sapphire, and Lake Toxaway?
Each community offers a different mountain lifestyle. Highlands is known for its walkable downtown and cultural amenities, Cashiers offers a relaxed village atmosphere, while Sapphire and Lake Toxaway appeal to buyers seeking lake access, privacy, and resort-style living. Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Meadows Mountain Realty helps buyers compare each area based on how they want to use their home.
Is downsizing to a mountain community a good option for retirees or empty nesters?
Many homeowners choose Highlands, Cashiers, and surrounding areas because they want less maintenance and more time enjoying nature, dining, golf, and community activities. The right home can provide a simpler lifestyle without giving up comfort or quality.
What are the benefits of living in communities like Old Edwards Club at Highlands Cove or Highlands Country Club?
These communities appeal to buyers who value amenities, social connections, golf, and a built-in mountain lifestyle. Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Meadows Mountain Realty helps buyers evaluate membership options, community features, and whether a neighborhood fits their long-term goals.
How does The Reserve at Lake Keowee compare to mountain communities in Highlands and Cashiers?
The Reserve offers a lakefront lifestyle with golf, club amenities, and waterfront recreation, while Highlands and Cashiers provide a more traditional mountain retreat experience. Buyers often compare these areas based on whether they prefer lake living, mountain views, or a combination of both.
What should I consider before making a full-time move to the Highlands or Cashiers area?
A full-time move involves more than finding the right home. Buyers often consider access to healthcare, shopping, seasonal weather, community activities, and how the area fits their daily routine. Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Meadows Mountain Realty helps clients make a confident transition with a clear understanding of local life.
