We are happy to announce that the CCF/FCMA national conference will take place live and in person this year! Newly rebranded as “The Craft Summit”, the conference will be held in St. John’s, Newfoundland & Labrador from Wednesday, Sept. 28th – Monday, October 3rd, 2022 under the theme: Ten Digit Technology: Connecting New Realities. 

A gathering for craft administrators & organizations, the Summit will bring our national craft network back together again. Working toward new futures, participants will learn from the expertise of craft sector leaders as well as our partners in digital research, leaving with new ideas, collaborative approaches, and strengthened bonds. 

For this, our 16th national gathering, we are excited to share hosting duties in partnership with the Craft Council of Newfoundland & Labrador and the Craft Alliance Atlantic Association. Join us for the first time to explore the craft community and all this region has to offer!
