Pine'eer Artisan Gift Shop
The Pine’eer Artisan Craft and Gift Shop is always seeking new crafters. If you are an artisan who would like to join, contact Sharon or email opcraftclub@aol.com for more information. All new crafters must go through the juried process, and when items sell, profits return to the community. Since its inception, the craft club has donated $175,000 back to Ocean Pines and has been handcrafting in the community for more than 40 years. The gift shop is open Saturdays 8 a.m.-3 p.m. and Sundays 10 a.m.-3 p.m.
