Have you seen Craft in America on PBS? If you haven’t had a chance, it’s been running this month and I highly recommend it. Produced in three episodes – Memory, Landscape & Community – the show is also presented in high-definition to capture the fine details of these great American crafts.

Craft in America is also on tour around the country. Click here for information on dates and locations and for those not near a tour city, they offer a wonderful online exhibition. I’m very excited as one of the stops will be local to me, at the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton, MA.

Beautiful. Objects such as these are the main reasons I like to attend craft shows. You always discover a unique and affordable find.
I didn’t realize it was an exhibition. Maybe I’ll be able to catch it in Palm Springs.
Thanks Eric, for mentioning this in your comment on my Thos. Moser post. It inspired me to watch the show!
