The Arts and Crafts Conference returns for the 26" year to enlighten and educate the masses on the Arts and Crafts movement
Tracing History

In efforts to explore regional significance of the arts and crafts movement, the New York-based organization, Initiatives in Arts and Culture, travels to a different American city each year to host the annual Arts and Crafts Conference. The 2024 edition will visit Pennsylvania's Brandywine Valley and Philadelphia, as well as other proximate sites.

Lisa Koenigsberg, the IAC president and founder, adds that the event "traces the history of the arts and crafts movement from its origins in Britain, to its manifestations in the Philadelphia area and its formative influences on the studio craft movement, coinciding with the opening of a major exhibition on Wharton Esherick (1887-1970) at the Brandywine Conservancy and Museum of Art."
