Join our virtual info session on December 20, 2024 at 2pm ET, to learn about the new 2024 WNC Craft Futures Cohort.The Center for Craft is reactivating the Craft Futures Fund program for emergency relief and recovery so that we may direct essential resources to support and care for the artists and community of Western North Carolina (WNC) in the wake of Hurricane Helene.

Over 30 regional craft artists impacted by Helene will receive a $10,000 grant, participate in a group exhibition, and join a 6-month cohort experience that supports rebuilding their artistic practice and extends mutual aid through a peer-to-peer network.

The information session will provide an overview of the new 2024 WNC Craft Futures Cohort program and offer tips to simplify the application process to complete your application.
