Title	Southern Highland Handicraft Guild meeting, 1942, September
Creator	Southern Highland Handicraft Guild
Medium of Original	unpublished materials
Date of Orginal	1942-10-29
Dimensions	11" x 8.5"
Description	The Southern Highland Handicraft Guild met for its fall membership meeting in Gatlinburg, Tennessee on September 29-30, 1942. Meeting minutes generally contain committee reports, financial statements, new members, announcements of regional events, and discussion about special issues facing the organization. This text also includes a schedule for the meeting and some topics that will be discussed. At this particular meeting a letter from Guild President J. E. Davis was read and his resignation accepted, since military duty called him away from the area. Clementine Douglas gave an exhibition report and there was discussion about exhibit requests. The Education Committee reported on the master craftsmen standards. Board members approved a Guild seal design and were sending them out for members to use on their pieces. The House & Garden magazine about Appalachian crafts was discussed. There was discussion about allowing individual guild members the right to vote at meetings. [Up to this time, only center members were allowed to vote.] Most of the program was an open forum on how World War II and the Great Depression had and continued to affect Guild members. There was discussion about the shortage of supplies and what members could do. The Southern Highland Handicraft Guild was founded in 1930 as the Southern Mountain Handicraft Guild. The name was changed to the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild in 1933 and again in the 1990s to the Southern Highland Craft Guild.
