Next Show: American Craft Council Show Baltimore

The prestigious American Craft Council Show in Baltimore is coming soon---
February 23-28, 2010

The American Craft Council sets the standard for fine craft shows, offering buyers the widest variety of craft selected through a rigorous jury process. More than 700 artists will present their latest jewelry, clothing, furniture, home décor and more at the 34th annual American Craft Council Wholesale Show in Baltimore, which will include a series of special features:

• CRAFT4KIDS: Artists will present their latest lines of clothing, furniture, toys, home décor and more designed especially for children.

• GREEN CRAFT: Responding to contemporary issues, this category features artists incorporating recycled, and/or eco-friendly materials and techniques.

• LAWN & GARDEN: New Category! Artists who craft lawn and outdoor-specific furniture, décor, accessories and more will be featured in this brand new category.

• NETWORKING EVENTS: Enjoy complimentary continental breakfast each morning in the registration area and educational roundtable sessions each day.

• SCHOOL-TO-MARKET: To help bridge the gap between educational programs and the marketplace for sculptural and functional craft, the Council has invited craft students from Savannah College of Art and Design and Rhode Island School of Design to curate a section of their work. An unparalleled opportunity, students will gain first-hand experience in booth design, installation, and interacting with the public.
