GIVE BACK TO NASHVILLE: HONOR FOUNDER NANCY SATURN

Nancy Saturn, local arts pioneer, and the founder of the American Artisan Festival and Gallery, died on March 9, 2010 following a valiant fight against breast cancer. We plan to celebrate the life and legacy of Nancy Saturn, and her passion, which was both to support the arts in Nashville, as well as raise awareness and support for Gilda’s Club Nashville, a gathering place for people with cancer.  

In Nancy's honor, we will donate 10% of all profits to support local arts organizations and Gilda's Club Nashville.  Join us to make a difference!
