The 4th Annual CCCG Spring Craft Show is scheduled for April 19 and 20, 2008.
The Chester County Craft Guild (CCCG) was incorporated in Pennsylvania in 1983. CCCG is committed to educating and nurturing serious craft artisans and providing a quality marketplace for both the artisan and the public.
CCCG meets on the second Monday of the month, from September through June, at 7:15 pm at the YWCA, 123 N. Church St., West Chester, PA. We offer guest speakers and workshops for crafters, as well as a yearly outing to an arts-related venue. The public is welcome to attend our meetings in a visitor status.
We sponsor two craft shows a year and offer a craft booth outside the Brandywine River Museum on weekends from September through December, in which our chapter juried members may participate. All artisans must meet rigorous standards to participate in our shows.
For more information on joining our guild, please contact our Membership Chairperson, Janice Ritenuti at Ritenutij@verizon.net or call us at (610) 363-9427.
