Online Craft Bash

October 28, by Shellie Wilson. Leave a Comment

American Craft Council to Host Online Annual Craft Bash Nov. 16 – Dec. 6

Minneapolis – October 27, 2020 — As a virtual extension of the annual in-person event of the same name, Craft Bash 2020 will feature the handmade goods of 70 – 100 diverse artists from across the country. Visitors will be able to purchase craft offerings, ranging from ceramics, jewelry, fashion, and home goods to apothecary, and candles, via an online marketplace platform, as well as connect to workshops and studio tours being held by the artists Monday, Nov. 18 – Sunday, Dec. 6, 2020.

A marketplace for meaningful, handmade gifts that supports makers

“This year’s online marketplace offers a connection to the type of giving that’s needed most for the end of a troubling year,” says Keona Tranby, director of marketing and communication for the ACC. “Amid chaos, the simple joy that handmade brings feels precious, and giving handmade lifts up a more mindful, creative economy, which adds meaning to our lives. Most importantly, artists have lost major sales channels during the pandemic, and participating in Craft Bash is an easy but essential way to support them.”

ACC Members get exclusive access to shop Nov. 16 – 17, as a perk of supporting the national non-profit, receiving first-look shopping for the seasonal online marketplace events. The first two days of Craft Bash 2020 will be open to members only. Join here today to get early access.
Some of the artists showing at Craft Bash include:
Local Artists:

In her Minneapolis studio, Stephanie DeArmond’s work explores language – taking slang phrases, colloquialisms, and snippets of conversation and abstracting them into sculptural form where meanings are revealed and obscured through typography and letterforms.

She uses traditional hand-building techniques to make complex constructions from slabs of clay. The typographic forms she creates are based on her own hand-drawn lettering and vintage letterforms. Each piece is unique — finished with glazes, vintage ceramic decals, or painted-on black slip. Visit: http://stephaniedearmond.com/.

Christine Ann Novotny has developed a unique visual approach to traditional floor loom weaving. Her company, CAN Goods produces small batch functional home goods and wearables. Her interest lies in manipulating traditional weaving patterns through bold colors, careful editing, and experimental proportions to contemporize traditional woven work. She also teaches classes and workshops in Northern Minnesota. Visit : https://christinenovotny.com/.

National Artists:

Sun & Lace shoes is handcrafted and made to order by Briana Raday in her Wisconsin studio. As a mom of two toddler boys, Briana can relate to having practical yet stylish shoes for little ones. Sun & Lace collections include: Boots & Oxfords, Bella Janes, Moccs, and Mary Janes. Visit: https://sunandlace.com/ to see and learn more.

Katzie Hughes and Scott Templin design and make contemporary jewelry and a matching collection of fine tableware at Hughes & Templin studio in Townsend, Mont. The jewelry collection, like the tableware, is distinguished by innovative design, clarity of form and precise craftsmanship. The pieces are colorful compositions of one or several simple, geometric shapes in silver, gold-plated silver and gold. Some of the jewelry is composed of interchangeable pieces that can be worn in multiple ways.
