Contemporary Craft

our mission: to engage the public in creative experiences through contemporary craft

Presenting contemporary art in craft media by international, national and regional artists since 1971, Contemporary Craft offers cutting edge exhibitions focused on multicultural diversity and non-mainstream art, as well as a range of classes, community outreach programs and a retail store. Through our mission of engaging the public in creative experiences through contemporary craft, we offer meaningful art opportunities for more than 145,000 people a year through four core values: providing vital support for artists; filling critical gaps in public education; sharing cross cultural perspectives; and using art to build community.
