At a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Adair County Arts and Crafts Corporation held last week, it was voted to name the craft center the Hannah Fowler House.

To honor Janice Holt Giles and to honor her most famous Kentucky novel, it was voted to call the craft shop after her book Hannah Fowler....In addition to handcrafts of every kind solicited from the entire county, the center will feature several special Hannah Fowler items, such as Hannah Fowler dolls, Hannah Fowler jams and jellies, Hannah Fowler baskets, and Hannah Fowler candies...will also carry all of Mrs. Giles' historical novels, which have sold more than 2,000,000 hard-cover copies. .
