WNC Craft Futures Cohort
2025
Elizabeth Walton is a studio jeweler and metalsmith from Asheville, North Carolina, who received her Studio Art BFA with a concentration in metalsmithing and jewelry design from Appalachian State University. Her creative practice investigates the intimacy of jewelry and its ability to facilitate interactions between the maker, wearer, and viewer through both one-of-a-kind objects and limited line production jewelry.
Elizabeth has participated in craft workshops at Penland School of Craft, Haystack Mountain School of Craft, and the Pentaculum Residency at Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts and has assisted in teaching workshops at Pocosin Arts School of Fine Craft and Penland School of Craft. She has also recently taught a metalsmithing workshop at Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts and is a member of the Southern Highland Craft Guild.
Elizabeth’s work is represented by several galleries, including Mora Designer Jewelry, Miya Gallery, and The Bascom: A Center for Visual Arts, and her work has been shown broadly in regional museums and galleries.
