This month I write about the history of Village Craftsmen, from the summer of 1970 when we first set up a tipi on Howard Street to sell some of my pen & ink drawings and a few handcrafts...
....to the present day with my daughter Amy as gallery manager, and offering high quality American crafts by several hundred artisans in more than 1,500 square feet of retail space.

Was the tipi ever used for camping at the Ocracoke NPS campground? I remember dad talking about one set up there when they visited once, and 1970ish would be about right...just wondering if the one mentioned in the article might have been the same one!
