The American Artisan Festival has had a long and successful history in Nashville since 1971. Founded by Nancy Saturn, a retailer and pioneer in the contemporary craft movement, the American Artisan Festival has been dedicated to showcasing work of the highest quality for over 40 years. Nancy lost her battle with breast cancer in 2010; however, the show carries on her vision and tradition of excellence led by her daughter and protégé, Samantha Saturn who has been running the event ever since.
