artisan district

An artisan district is a neighborhood or urban zone characterized by workshops, studios, and small businesses where craftspeople produce handmade goods.

These areas typically feature concentrations of potters, glassblowers, woodworkers, jewelers, and similar makers, often alongside galleries and specialty retail shops.

Cities designate or promote artisan districts to preserve traditional crafts, attract tourism, and foster creative economies.

The old warehouse area has been revitalized as an artisan district with dozens of working studios.
