We Tell the Story of the Valleys
More Than a Regional Art Center

Creativity is alive and well in the North Georgia Mountains. For 42 years, the historic Sautee and Nacoochee Valleys have been home to a vital institution which has nurtured and supported the local community in many ways. The Sautee Nacoochee Center is the face of the Sautee Nacoochee Community Association and offers its programs not only in support of the creative arts but to bind the north Georgia community together in friendship and understanding.

As one of the strongest community arts programs in the state and the nation we have earned support from a number of regional and national funders. In following our mission to "value and nurture individual creativity, along with the historical, cultural, and environmental resources of the Sautee and Nacoochee valleys and surrounding areas," we also generate impressive local support from a community that genuinely treasures what we bring to their lives. In turn we treasure the people of these hills and valleys and what they bring to the world.

MUSEUMS ON CAMPUS

The Folk Pottery Museum of Northeast Georgia is part of the the Center family and is located on our campus. The award winning structure was funded by Dean and Kay Swanson and houses their outstanding collection of Georgia folk pottery which they gathered with the guidance of collector and folk potter, Michael Crocker. In addition SNCA hosts a History Museum and the African American Heritage Site.
