{Chase Center on the Riverfront: July} For more than 60 years, the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen has served the crafts community through educational opportunities, marketing events, information services, encouragement and fellowship. The Guild's marketing arm, The Pennsylvania Designer Craftsmen, organizes and promotes three craft shows annually in Wilmington, DE (July), Montgomery County, PA (October), and Lancaster, PA (November).
Beyond the three Pennsylvania Designer Craftsmen exclusives, the Guild offers fine craft boulevards at prestigious events such as FlavorFest (May) on Memorial Day weekend. Guild chapters throughout the state provide fine craft events (chapters) and the Guild also provides partnered and shared booth opportunities to its juried members at events like the Philadelphia Flower Show (March), Philadelphia Invitational Furniture Show and the Buyers Market of American Craft.
{Chong Lim of Island Designs demonstrating embossing techniques} No matter what show format you find Guild members, it's an opportunity for collectors and makers to hold lively conversations about design, technique, style, imagination, and creative inspiration. An opportunity is offered for the artist to talk about their work, and to distinguish the value of their handmade crafts. Bring your friends and family and explore a Pennsylvania Guild event.
Add this year's Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen events to your calendar! Each show offers its own unique blend of demonstrations, entertainment, kids' activities, food and the magnificent art and craftwork for which the Guild is famous.
