Appalachians are molding mountains into masterpieces with an edge of inherited grit and determination. That's why we're on a mission to portray the region with a contemporary, colorful point of view. We are capturing and amplifying the region’s vital storytellers, unique designers, impactful photographers, vivacious artists and underrepresented perspectives. This region is an undeniable creative force, and it’s time the rest of the world sees that too.
