Known as the “Folk Arts & Crafts Capitol of Kentucky”, Berea is a thriving community full of diverse people and opportunities. Artists from all over the world are proud to call Berea home and use the community setting to display their various forms of art and craft work for all to enjoy. Berea is home to Berea College, the Artisan Center and Artisan Village, The Pinnacles hiking experience, along with restaurants, small businesses, and large industrial manufacturers. It truly is a city on the rise!
