John & Geri Ravnum

Meet a Co-op Leader   Every beautiful story has a beginning.  For the Cumberland Gap Artists' Co-op, that beginning started with John Ravnum.  John is our only remaining original founding member, anchoring our organization all the way back to December of 2014.  For well over a decade, John has been the bedrock of our existence, serving continuously on the leadership team as one of our six dedicated Board Directors.  More than a leader, John has been our champion.  His incredibly generous assistance is the exact reason we have the beautiful physical gallery space we call home today.  We want to extend a massive, heartfelt thank you to John and Geri.   Because of your vision, Cumberland Gap, TN, is a vibrant home where Appalachian artists and artisans from across our entire Tri-State area can share, show, and promote their incredible works!
