2020 Craft Marketplace
During the pandemic, our talented craft artists have been busy creating new work. Although you can’t touch the works or connect with the artists in person, we’ve given you examples of their work here. We encourage you to go to their websites and take a closer look. The artists will be happy to work out delivery arrangements for anything you’d like to purchase.
