For nearly a decade, The Local Artisan Collective has been bringing artists and our community together through handmade art, creative experiences, and meaningful connections.
The Collective was started by Stephanie Howerton and Jenny Venegas after years of selling our artwork at local festivals and boutiques. We saw a need for an affordable, year-round place where people could shop local and artists could share their work, teach classes, and build their businesses.
What started with the two of us quickly became something much bigger.
The Local Artisan Collective is what it is today because of the amazing artists who have believed in this dream and helped shape it along the way. We’re especially grateful to our founding members, Mike Hurst and Roxanne Vigos, along with the many artists who have been part of our journey over the years. Their creativity, encouragement, and willingness to jump in have made this community what it is.
Today, we’re proud to be home to more than 30 local artists. Every item in our store has a story, every artist has a passion, and every purchase makes a difference.
More than anything, we’re a family. Whether you’re one of our artists, a customer, or someone walking through our doors for the first time, we hope you feel welcomed, inspired, and part of what we’ve built together.
Thank you for supporting local artists and helping our creative community continue to grow.
