Featuring a wide spectrum of artworks—including painting, sculpture, installation, textile, beadwork, and ceramics from the past eight decades—the exhibition emphasizes dialogues between artists who circumvent and break through conventions in art-making, embracing craft techniques, new technologies, conceptual inquiries, inventive methods, and uncommon materials. Artists in the exhibition include Andrea Bowers, Suzanne Jackson, Julie Mehretu, Howardina Pindell, Joan Mitchell, Lorna Simpson, Jaune Quick-to-See Smith, Sarah Sze, Kay WalkingStick, and Mary Weatherford, among many others.

On the third Friday of every month, Craft Alliance joins the other organizations of the Delmar Maker District to celebrate with live craft demonstrations, hands-on activities, music, food, and the chance to find a beautiful handmade piece or two in our shop. The events are family-friendly and also make a great date night. Learn more about this month's theme at: https://www.craftalliance.org/events

Don’t forget that our Gallery Shop will be open the whole weekend for in-person shopping of beautiful handmade goods:

Friday: 10 AM – 9 PM

Saturday: 10 AM – 6 PM

Sunday: 10 AM – 4 PM
