Celebrate the art of handmade American craft during American Craft Week, October 6-15, 2015 in St. Petersburg.

Now in its eighth year, ACW is the nation’s largest celebration of handmade American craft. We began with a simple idea: what if EVERYBODY who makes, sells, exhibits, teaches or celebrates American craft – what if we ALL did something at the same time to spotlight an aspect of amazing American craft? What if we ALL tell the world what craft creates for America: jobs, vibrant communities, economic growth, and an exceptional national heritage and a beautiful aesthetic for our homes and public places.

Whether you’re just starting out or are already an established collector, we encourage you to support our craft artists with an item from one of St. Petersburg’s many unique galleries
