Good With Their Hands

November 10, 2010 Leave a Comment

Some people are just really good at making things by hand. And luckily for us, The Society of Arts and Crafts has gathered 90 venerable artists who make one-of-a-kind and limited-edition pieces in ceramics, decorative fiber, wearables, furniture, glass, jewelry, leather, metal, mixed media, paper and wood. Where can one see this assortment of goodies? Well at the Craftboston Holiday exhibition and sale a the Cyclorama at Boston Center for the Arts on December 10-12, 2010.
.

Whats more, the good people of Craftboston have donated weekend passes to libraries (we LOVE our public libraries and librarians) throughout Massachusetts.

Yes, Craftboston Holiday has extended 10 free weekend passes each to over 80 public libraries throughout Massachusetts for their members (Celtics fans would call this a Tommy point)! Yeah Craftboston! Libraries are an essential part of our history and culture, educating and informing the public in many areas including craft. Craftboston would like to encourage the continuation of knowledge, interest and interaction with fine craft by inviting library members to their weekend-long exhibition.

 

Questions about the Craftboston library program contact Sarah at 617-266-1810.
