The 2021 Art in Autumn Committee is pleased to announce Justin Rabuck as the judge for this fall’s festival! Justin is the organizer of ‘The Big Crafty’, Asheville’s renowned and beloved local arts and crafts bazaar. He is also the co-owner of Horse and Hero, a downtown Asheville showcase for boundary-pushing art and craft where people can get connected with local artists, designers and craftspeople for creative projects.
