Trips of this sort are a memorable and uncommon experience for many elderly people. About 85 percent of this Club’s mem bers rarely leave Black Mountain : they either lack private transportation or think ii unsafe to drive ihemselves. The Fair was a delightful event for everyone. Great interest was shown in the' ,-xhibits which ranged from bells, flutes and dulcimers to quilts, furniture and toys to name a very few of the objects displayed. There were numerous craft demon strations and before leaving the group saw the Carolina (’loggers from Canton who danced around 2:30 with everything flying as only an elementary group can do it. Particular mention should be made of an exhibit of specially chosen objects called the Bicentennial Collection which were taken from the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild Permanent Collection. There were many admirable objects in this collection but there might be some honest con fusion about which of them might be properly called Folk Art and which are simply routine ceramics, textiles or wood carvings differing in no way from what one finds in craft boutiques across the country. There may be a conflict in this collection between a Folk Aesthetic and the Guilds commercial in terests. Club members owe thanks to many organizations and people for this outing. Irene Stephenson manager of the XYZ Club in Black Mountain and Ernestine Cole from the Blue Ridge Mental Health Canter did the planning. The Red Cross and HandiSkills furnished busses and the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild admitted the Club members to the Fair without charge. r%.f% j| i' * * .< »‘n r* i .* ♦ ? — r.'
