While natural beauty is prevalent as far as the eye can see in Franklin County, works of art aren't limited to the great outdoors. The Southern Illinois Artisans Shop and Visitors Center, adjacent to the Rend Lake Golf Course, includes more than 25 categories of arts and crafts representing the work of more than 800 of Illinois' finest artisans all available for purchase.
Built in 1993, the Gallery features a wide range of changing exhibits focusing on fine, decorative, manufacturing, and ethnographic arts of Illinois. The Gallery provides for interpretive activities, educational workshops, demonstrations, conferences, and special-use programs. Area tourist information and a gift shop also is available at the Visitor Center.
The Southern Illinois Tourism Bureau offices are located in the building. When taking in the many awe-inspiring attractions of Southern Illinois, don't overlook this inspirational indoor facility located at exit 77 off I-57.
