For the first time ever, Contemporary Craft is collaborating with an outside curator for this annual event. Keith Recker, Editor in Chief of TABLE Magazine, worked alongside the Contemporary Craft team to curate tableware for the holiday season. Keith selected a blue and white theme for plates, mugs, bowls, napkins, placemats, and more. This artist-made selection will be displayed in the Contemporary Craft Store in stunning tablescapes.

“It’s an honor to work with TABLE on this year’s CRAFTED holiday shopping event. Keith and his team truly appreciate the value and beauty of well-crafted items and the warmth and joy they bring to your life and home. CRAFTED is one of my favorite events of the year, and I’m excited for everyone to see the incredible selection of tableware curated for this holiday season,” says Rachel Rearick, Executive Director of Contemporary Craft. 

On November 21, VIP ticket holders will enjoy a bespoke blue-and-white cocktail created by TABLE Publisher Justin Matase. Plus, all guests will enjoy complementary snacks and mocktails while shopping for everyone on your list. Purchases support working artists and Contemporary Craft’s free community programming.
