Current Issue
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.
Be inspired to seek and treasure the handmade in this rich and varied issue that explores the ways craft can bring meaning, pattern, and texture to our lives.
In American Craft you’ll find:
- Feature-length profiles and stories about artists and makers who work in clay, glass, textiles, metal, wood, and other earthy materials.
- Spotlights on handcrafted works—sculptures, furniture, lamps, etc.—at the leading edge of art and design.
- Gorgeous photography from inside makers’ studios and craft lovers’ homes.
- Beautiful and innovative handmade goods, such as jewelry, tableware, clothing, and games.
- New books, films, podcasts, and more from our own “Crafty Librarian.”
- Inside information about craft-centric galleries, museums, schools, businesses, and travel destinations.
- A curated guide to exhibitions, shows, and other craft events around the country.
