BEREA COLLEGE CRAFT:

Sustaining Traditions and Spirit of the Hand-Made

Is it possible that a place could embody such a strong historical and spiritual presence that it successfully guides subsequent generations and populations? Could the Berea we know today have been in the making for thousands of years--both socially and commercially? Read about the ancient Hopewell civilization from 100 B.C. to 400 A.C. in Arts Across Kentucky's Winter 2012 issue's cover story.

Berea College students continue the tradition where simple work of the hands are celebrated.
