BIG STONE GAP — A campus that boasts a lovely autumnal setting with its view of the beautiful Powell Valley is poised to host the 46th Annual Home Craft Days Festival this weekend. Born on the Mountain Empire Community College campus nearly half a century ago as a student-inspired class project, the festival quickly grew into one of the most attended and popular seasonal events in the region. The festival will celebrate mountain heritage music, culture and artistry beginning with a free Friday night concert followed by all day Saturday and Sunday musical performances, craft vendors and a broad range of artisans demonstrating their craft-making talents. The East Tennessee State University Old Time Pride Band, Dale Jett and Hello Stranger, and Sigean will perform during the free concert that begins at 6 p.m.
