The Citizens of Craft movement, which includes makers, appreciators, collectors, and admirers, continues to grow. With over 560 profiles on the citizensofcraft.ca site, it seems that many share the values of the movement! The 10 manifesto statements, featured on the new Citizens of Craft poster, speaks volumes about the importance of unique and enduring craft.
We encourage all members of provincial and territorial craft councils and affiliate members of the CCF/FCMA to “declare yourself” and join the movement – it’s easy! Just visit citizensofcraft.ca and create a profile. Professional craftspeople and organizations are welcome to join! (Need technical help? Watch the Citizens of Craft ‘How to Create a Citizens of Craft Profile’ webinar.)
Moving forward, the CCF/FCMA is introducing a bi-weekly Citizens of Craft Feature in our e-newsletter. In each issue, we will feature an artist or organization’s Citizens of Craft profile. Don’t miss your chance to be showcased to a national audience – join today!
