THIS SAD LITTLE FELLOW was made by Mrs. Lois McKinney of the Jack’s Creek area # MANY CRAFTS BUNG SOLD THROUGH WAMY MARKETING PROGRAM Rag dolls, corn shuck dolls, sock monkeys, and hand puppets; rag rugs and patchwork quilts; wood carvings and whistles; woven honeysuckle and split oak baskets these are just a few of the products now being sold through the WAMY Mountain Crafts and Marketing Program. Initiated by the WAMY (Watauga, Avery, Mitchell, and Yancey counties) community action pro gram in 1965, the program has grown to include more than 200 artisans.. They received national recognition this summer when they were invited to participate in the Georg Jensen display of American Crafts in New York; the Smithsonian Folk Festival in Washington, D. C. (the Smithsonian ordered $5,000 in crafts for permanent ’isplay); and the Newport Rhode Island Folk Festival. This year the toys that have brightened the lives of mountain folk for generations will bring Christmas joy to youngsters throughout the United States. We wish our friends and patrons the blessings of a warm and happy holiday.
