Who are the mountain girls?
The artists with works in Mountain Girl Gallery are: Deidra Krois (potter), Jill Rikkers (blacksmith), Lizzie Fike (jeweler), and Lucy Boody (textile artist).
How and when did the business come together?
Four local female artists came together in the summer of 2017 to start a cooperative art gallery as a leap of faith. Five years later it is still serving our community with unique handmade art.
