As promised here is more information on Craft Congress. I thought it would be easiest to send out the information in small bites, as there is so much that occurred that it could be overwhelming. So, here we go!
One of the first questions people have asked is, “What was Craft Congress”. Well, we have an article up on the main site that explains it, but I thought it might help if you saw what the sessions were and who was presenting them.
Here you are:
