Citizens of Craft Updates are Live!

The Citizens of Craft website has been updated with a fresh landing page, easy to navigate menu and we made adding online events, such as virtual exhibitions,  easier than ever. The Canadian Crafts Federation has been working with our digital partners, SOS Design and Digital Chaos, to make new changes to the online crafts hub.

What’s New?

Visit the Citizens of Craft website to take a tour of the fresh updates. To start, you will see the new landing page featuring familiar faces from our “Faces of Craft” artists. A revised information architecture makes it easier to navigate the new menu to find exactly what you’re looking for. We are most excited about simplifying the process to add digital events. We encourage you to post your virtual and live events, no matter where they take place across Canada. Enjoy these new features, and take the time to browse through, or update your own, Citizens of Craft Profile today.

“Everything feels really clean and clear” – Janna Hiemstra, Executive Director, Craft Ontario

#MembershipMondays

Whether you’re an artist or organization, you can create a craft event on the Citizens of Craft website. The Canadian Crafts Federation will feature digital events that can be attended virtually across Canada for #MembershipMonday on our social media channels. It’s easy to promote your event and declare yourself a Citizen of Craft!

The Citizens of Craft website was designed to be Canada’s craft hub. Your content contribution supports the Citizens of Craft movement of makers, shoppers, admirers and anyone whose values match our values of heritage, innovation, the leading edge, traditional, authentic, and entrepreneurial. CitizensofCraft.ca allows everyone to access and highlight craft in a rich and searchable online space. We look forward to learning about you and your event on the Citizens of Craft website.
