Everywhere you look during the holidays, there’s Craft.You can find it in boutiques, galleries and studios, at your local community centre or church, in pop-up shops and at special holidays fairs. We know we’re preaching to the choir here, since our e-news subscribers already appreciate fine craft and know the value of buying local handmade, but we encourage you to share the love this holiday season and purchase fine craft gifts for everyone on your list. Remember, you’re not only giving a unique, special gift to the ones you love, you’re also directly contributing to your local economy!

The CCF/FCMA board and staff wishes you the happiest of holidays, and we look forward to exciting activity to come in 2014! Our office will be closed from December 13th to January 3rd, as we are attending meetings in Montreal followed by a holiday break.
