45th Annual Fine Designer Crafts Show

The premier three-day show and sale of craft includes more than 100 contemporary fine craft artists from across North Carolina and the U.S.

This festive event held Thanksgiving weekend in Raleigh, NC is a trusted resource for collectors and the community at-large.  A rigorous two-step jury selection process draws emerging and career craft artists who are presenting craft at the highest level – reflecting a mastery of technique and originality of design.

Craft Show artists present a striking variety of fine craft in glass, ceramics, wood, both wearable and decorative fibers, metal, leather, printmaking, photography and mixed media, as well as one-of-a-kind handmade furniture and both precious and semi-precious jewelry. A full list of 2014 artists and images of their work can be seen below.

The opening night preview party on Friday, Nov. 28 from 4 to 7 offers collectors an opportunity to get a first look at the Show and includes appetizers, beer and wine, raffle and live music by the Thomas Taylor Trio.
