American Craft Show - AltCraft!


Apply now for the AltCraft section at the American Craft Show in San Francisco at the Fort Mason Center, August 15-17.

Ten makers will be juried into this bustling section, which celebrates the renewed handmade movement. Artists who have never exhibited at an American Craft Show may apply.

Located on the San Francisco waterfront between Fisherman’s Wharf and the Golden Gate Bridge, this show serves a well-established audience of Bay Area craft devotees. The show also features wine tastings and live demonstrations. As part of the Council’s commitment to indie crafters, the cost of participation is just $300, which includes a 10-ft table in a shared loft space. Plus, there’s no application fee!

The deadline is Friday, May 23. Please submit:

  • (3) low-resolution images of your work
  • A brief description of your work (materials, dimensions, techniques)
  • Your contact information (mailing and email addresses)

Send submissions and inquiries to Erika at ebrown@craftcouncil.org.
The subject line should be: San Fran AltCraft Application

Finalists will be announced in June.
