Fall 2024
American Craft’s Fall 2024 issue is focused on the theme weave.
Inside this issue, you’ll discover artists and makers who employ weaving techniques to create stunning works: baskets lovingly fashioned for our tenderest moments, brooms that make cleaning more joyous, and sculptural works that tell stories about migration and place. You’ll venture to Teater’s Knoll, an artist’s studio in Idaho designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, housing a collection of 21st-century Japanese and American ceramics.
You’ll also find 30 pages devoted to celebrating some of today’s most accomplished American craftspeople—as well as advocates, scholars, curators, and philanthropists in the field—the recipients of this year’s American Craft Council Awards.
